She attended Vanderbilt University, earning a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology for her undergraduate studies.After witnessing unequal access to justice and want to help usher in change, she decided to attend Georgia State University College of Law. She was awarded the Dean's Scholarship.

She is a team player who invests herself in her client's needs throughout all of her roles at The Manely Firm. She participates in research, drafting, and trial preparation for numerous cases the firm litigates. With her zealous nature she is sure to be a tenacious advocate for her clients.
