February is Black History Month. Black History Month was started in 1926 by Carter G Woodson and was originally only one week in length. In 1976, President Ford extended the week to one month. This is a month to remember the accomplishments and struggles of African Americans. This is a time to acknowledge intelligence, inventions, […]
Valentine’s Day was last week but my word for the year is Love, so I am constantly thinking about what that word means to me and how I can love others better. One of the best ways to love others better, is to truly learn to love ourselves FIRST. Even Jesus acknowledged the importance of […]
I love Christmas, always have always will. The cooler weather, Christmas decor, gatherings with family and friends, and the celebration of the birth of a savior make this time of year fun. But I have also lived long enough to know that Christmas, and the holidays in general, are not always a happy time. If […]
I have been so busy this month. Between my high school reunion, law school reunion, law firm retreat, and board meeting, I have been on the go. When I am busy, I love to be fashionable but comfort is also a priority. I often run from one activity to the next and have to think […]

In the first portion of my Journey to Attorney, I talked about my 1L year. I did my best to not tell every scary story that happened because it would have made the post too long, and I’m not trying to scare anyone. LOL! I did enjoy 1L year and despite any ups or downs […]
Earlier this month I was able to get together with a few of my law school classmates. I graduated from law school 10 years ago and the years have flown by. While I’m sure not every portion of my law school journey is unique, I hope by sharing I can help someone prepare. Law school […]

After my second year of law school, I had a summer internship as well. I am truly thankful for those experiences and know that they shaped my current […]
