North Carolina Certified Notary Public
I’m originally from sunny South Florida, where my notary commission and paralegal career began. From there, the Army brought us to Tennessee, where I continued my notary and legal career, earned my Bachelor of Arts and Pre-Law minor degrees from Austin Peay State University, and started my beautiful family.
