About Me
I come from a farming family in rural Eastern North Carolina. My family instilled in me the values that I use every day in the practice of law - treat people with respect, be honest and do the absolute best you can at whatever you do. I take a genuine interest in my clients. I am a firm believer that you must have a keen understanding of the client’s business, goals and objectives in order to provide effective counsel.
If I am not working, you will most likely find me spending time with my wonderful wife and two children, attending concerts, or cheering on the Wolfpack.
