I then earned a Master's degree in Clinical Psych and was a Marriage and Family therapist - intern. I provided therapy services to members of the SFV. I then earned a Juris Doctorate degree and became a CA state bar attorney. I run a solo firm in the city of Van Nuys, where I work closely with various communities in the areas of Workers' Comp/Employment law and Personal Injury. I am a single working mother, living in Reseda with my 21 year old daughter, who is attending community college and works full time.

I held my first job at the age of 16 while I was in high school at LA Lutheran HS in Sylmar. At that time, my mother spoke with me and said she could no longer afford my tuition and I would have to transfer out. I was a sophomore going to junior and I was determined to stay at LA Lutheran. That is when I decided I would pay for my own tuition. I was hired at a local restaurant, Fiddler's restaurant in Sylmar and worked there, ensuring to pay for my education until I graduated.
