ACMA Fellows share a commitment to giving back to their industry, improving and reforming laws and procedures affecting real estate secured transactions, and raising the level of professional responsibility of lawyers practicing in this area.

She also regularly issues legal opinions in connection with multistate projects and as local counsel for transactions originated outside of Tennessee secured by real property located within the state. Her commercial and real estate lending practice includes representation of lenders and borrowers in negotiating, structuring and documenting construction, and permanent financing of restaurants, shopping centers, office buildings, and multifamily residential projects, as well as working capital and general corporate loans.
