Since graduating from Vanderbilt University School of Law in 1998, I've been working with folks across Tennessee to plan purposefully in all matters related to both small and large businesses - from entity creation, to the sale of an existing business - and all that takes place in between.

Regardless of the help someone needs, I view my role as one of counselor and communicator. I've learned in 14 years of practice that communication is key to a successful lawyer-client relationship. To this end, I've written about what people should expect from their lawyers, as well as what we expect from our clients. A BA and MA in communication, and extensive training as a civil mediator, also come in handy when helping clients navigate challenging situations.

​

I’m a fifth generation attorney, and those who came before me leave big shoes to fill: a great-great uncle who was chief justice of the Supreme Court of Kentucky, a grandfather who was a Kentucky Circuit Court Judge, and a father whose commitment to serving the public through the practice of law is a constant inspiration.

I live in Franklin, TN, with my husband and two children, in the house where my husband was raised. In addition to the law, I have a fascination with all things related to technology, and also enjoy reading and writing books. My husband and I watch our children play a lot of basketball, and spend way too much time taking care of the Moon zoo (currently two goats, a dog, four horses, 20 cows, two ducks, two cats and too many chickens to count).



P.S. In addition to business counsel, I also work with individuals and families to create thoughtful estate plans, focusing on practical solutions to carry out individual goals and wishes. To learn more about how I can help, visit our primary website csquaredlaw.com.
