Partner with us to ensure another four years of efficient, effective and experienced service on the bench.
I’ve spent the last three years primarily in family and domestic violence courtrooms—both civil and criminal. Every day that I badge into a courtroom, I strive to preside with patience and to extend the grace that we all need. At the same time, I work hard to listen, to study the law and to make legally sound decisions. I’m responsive, manage my case load and run an efficient courtroom. When necessary, I hold people accountable and make hard decisions in away that is respectful and that promotes positive change.
When you or someone you know faces court action, you’ll want a good judge. You’ll want a judge who is intelligent and hard-working. You’ll want a judge who is impartial and who considers it a privilege to be in service to you.
I’m running because Mecklenburg County deserves good judges.
