From 2020 to 2022, she served as a judicial law clerk to the Honorable Judge John Cannon Few of the Supreme Court of South Carolina. She now practices civil litigation where her practice focuses primarily on appellate advocacy, business and commercial litigation, and administrative and regulatory litigation. The advice she would give her 18 year old self is this: What you have done until this point doesn't define who you are after this point. Right now is only the beginning.
