I've always had an entrepreneurial spirit and have been up for a challenge. After talking to my mentor and a couple of colleagues, it seemed like the most natural option.
I try not to look at life through the lens of a challenge because life is full of challenges - for everyone. It's important to focus on the positive when you can. But, to answer the question -- Of course, there's the challenge of getting through the notoriously competitive law school environment without comparing yourself and your path to others. There's also the challenge of doubt - both self-doubt and doubt from others - people asking why I didn't take the more traditional route of going to work for Big Law then starting a business. And, perhaps, most obviously, there's the challenge of being a Black, female attorney and business owner in a field that's predominantly and historically white and male. I accept the challenge and set out to do my best for all of my clients regardless of the circumstances.

Being peer-nominates as a San Antonio Best Lawyer and San Antonio Rising Star Lawyer within the first couple months of going solo and starting my law firm. I was so surprised and honored. It was validation that I made the right choice and that I had peers that stood behind me.
As a solo practitioner, I know what it's like to start a business from the ground up. My husband and I are both entrepreneurs so I personally understand the importance of incorporation and having a good contract to ensure that the terms of a deal are set in stone and to be able to have some type of remedy to fall back on if the deal falls through. As a mother of 2 girls under 3, I understand the importance of having an estate plan in place to protect your wealth and provide for your family's future in the most efficient way possible.
