Purpose, Impact, & The Stories That Define Us

Class of 2012

When I was at Mercer, I was the community service chair for the student bar association. Mercer always fostered that community aspect of not only being a part of a larger community, but helping the community, as well. A lot of the time, we get caught up in our careers and taking care of business, and we forget to look around to see who we can help with the skills we have in place. That has translated into my career as a public defender with the Houston County public defender’s office.
