I practiced employment discrimination in the Atlanta area for two decades, during which time I founded the Professional Women’s Information Network (ProWIN) and received multiple awards for legal and community service. I was recognized as a “Super Lawyer,” a “Star of Atlanta,” and as one of the nation’s “Preeminent Female Lawyers,” and received a certificate of recognition from the Georgia Coalition Against Domestic Violence for my service. In 2016, I earned my MFA in Creative Writing from the Vermont College of Fine Arts. My work appears in Creative Nonfiction, Santa Ana River Review, Five Points, Bacopa Literary Review, and others. An Imperfect Rapture is my first full-length memoir. My writing can be summed up in the following quote: “I believe the most subversive act a woman can commit is to tell her story. The world whispers (or shouts) all our lives: be nice, sit down, be quiet. To the world I shout: I will not, I will not, I will not. I am a woman. I am a writer. This is my story.”
