I am a recent graduate of the University of Central Florida’s Legal Studies program, where I developed strong skills in critical thinking, legal research, and legal writing. My academic journey was enriched by my participation in UCF’s Moot Court team, where I honed my ability to analyze complex legal issues and craft detailed legal memoranda. I am passionate about the law and eager to expand my knowledge and practical experience in the legal field.
Currently, I work as a White Glove Case Consultant at Morgan and Morgan, where I conduct client intakes and assess case viability. My role requires professionalism and empathy, especially when dealing with sensitive situations. I coordinate initial discovery efforts and work closely with attorneys to handle time-sensitive cases. I am committed to maintaining discretion and attention to detail in all aspects of my work, ensuring that I contribute positively to the legal environment.
