Professional Background

I got my law degree at UNC Chapel Hill in 1994. Since then, I have practiced law in small firm settings in North Carolina.

How has being an English graduate from Duke University helped shape your professional success?

I now devote my practice to appeals to the NC Court of Appeals and the NC Supreme Court. Ninety-nine percent of my practice consists of written advocacy. I am so glad that my major emphasized understanding the written word and putting my own thoughts into writing. I will never doubt the value of my classical undergraduate degree.
