Hello!

Paralegal and Aspiring Attorney

Based in Pueblo, Colorado, I am a criminal defense paralegal with a passion for providing exceptional support in the legal field. With a paralegal certification and years of experience, I specialize in delivering meticulous research, case management, and client advocacy to attorneys and legal teams across southern Colorado.

As a criminal defense paralegal, I excel in organizing and maintaining case files, conducting legal research, and preparing critical documents such as motions, pleadings, and subpoenas. I communicate effectively with clients and witnesses, ensuring that all necessary information is gathered and that clients are well-informed throughout their case. My role also involves assisting with trial preparation, including creating trial binders, coordinating logistics, and preparing evidence for court presentations.

As an independent contractor with the Alternate Defense Counsel (ADC), I am committed to upholding the principles of justice and ensuring the highest standards of legal assistance. Currently, I am in my senior year at CSU Pueblo, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in political science—a step that deepens my understanding of the legal system and enhances my professional expertise.

Whether collaborating on complex legal cases or assisting clients in navigating challenging circumstances, I approach each task with integrity, precision, and a client-focused mindset.
