She also co-authored The Divorce Coach Handbook, reflecting experience with the practical concerns clients encounter while navigating separation and family court proceedings.

Her background combines litigation, mediation, judicial service, writing, and professional education. She uses that experience to help clients organize disputed issues, understand procedural choices, and move family law matters toward workable resolutions while protecting important parental, financial, and legal interests.
