My professional career spans 18 years in both corporate management and law. My legal career includes all levels of the justice system in county, district, juvenile and federal court. I currently serve as an Associate Judge with the Winnebago Tribal Court. I also currently serve as an adjunct teaching law at Metropolitan Community College. In county court, I represent children and adult wards in probate, and serve as counsel for adoptive parents. Throughout the community, I often sit on panels and help facilitate training courses. I am involved in dozens of community organizations as either a member or an officer. I recognize the benefit my skillsets bring to those in need and I am excited about the opportunity to share my experience with the future of the legal profession. Additionally, I annually put in over 25-30 hours of pro bono work as part of my commitment to service. I have earned a white belt in Six Sigma with a focus in Lean Analysis and Application. I currently utilize these improvement tools for organizational efficiency, effectiveness, and innovation in my law firm. My legal experience coupled with my former career in corporate management and technology enables me to offer distinctive and unique views on advocacy while remaining solution-oriented. I look forward to applying my education, training, and experiences to serve you. Education University of Nebraska , Lincoln - College of Law - May 2013 Masters of Law (LL.M.)
