When did you and your husband, Mike, move to Bluffton? What influenced that decision? Do you live in town or in the country?

We had been driving up to Bluffton to go to the Shannon, getting a summer pool pass or coming to see the Christmas lights and always said ... One day we are gonna move here. We decided in 2005 to put our house up for sale and move. Our house sold in six days and we moved in August one week before school started. I think the school was the biggest influence. And we live in the country!

When did you decide to become an attorney? What influenced your decision?
In 2001, I was working as a police sergeant in Toledo, and I realized that what I liked most about the job was investigating and putting together cases. I was also getting tired of working third shift and sleeping in four-hour blocks of daytime hours. And although there is a lot of diversity in Toledo, even among cops, I never really fit in very well with the "culture". So I started law school in 2001 and graduated in 2004.
