As a family-building attorney licensed in Missouri and Kansas, I combine legal experience with compassion, understanding, and inclusivity to support clients through surrogacy, adoption, assisted reproduction agreements, and confirmatory parentage. I serve families of all types—at every stage—ensuring they feel seen, heard, and cared for throughout the legal process.

I’m especially passionate about empowering LGBTQ+ individuals to protect their families through the confirmation of parental rights—an issue that is increasingly important in today’s legal climate. My practice includes surrogacy orders, embryo and gamete donation agreements, agency consultations, and LGBTQ+ family planning.

My journey to law was unconventional: I studied at the University of Texas at San Antonio, originally dreaming of becoming an Air Force pilot. After a decade in banking, raising a family, and working toward a degree, I pivoted to law in 2016, bringing with me the heart of a counselor and the advocacy skills of an attorney.

I live in the Midwest with my husband Marc, our three kids, and four beloved pets. I enjoy photography, gaming, and advocating for my neurodiverse family—fueled by coffee and a deep commitment to helping others navigate the path to parenthood.
