I am a licensed attorney in Texas. My main area of practice is personal injury. I obtained my Bachelors of Business Administration Degree in Finance from the University of Texas in Austin, Texas, in 1987, and earned my Juris Doctor Degree from South Texas College of Law in 1995. While in law school, I was on the Dean's list and received the American Jurisprudence Award in Legal Research and Writing. I was also a licensed insurance adjuster in the state of Texas and had six years claims handling experience before beginning my legal career. I am Board Certified in Personal Injury Law and also admitted to practice before the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, and all Texas state courts.
