About Katharine

Her work includes supporting record development, briefing, and coordination in cases where context and accuracy matter as much as legal theory. She brings a strong foundation in appellate advocacy and public interest work to every matter she supports. She has been recognized by Super Lawyers as a Rising Star.
Katharine earned her law degree, cum laude, from Wake Forest University School of Law, where she served as Managing Editor of the Wake Forest Law Review and Executive Director of the Public Interest Law Organization.
