I am currently a paralegal at Primmer Piper Eggleston & Cramer PC where I assist with litigation and regulatory matters. I studied for and passed the NFPA Paralegal Advanced Competency Exam (PACE®) in July 2023 and am now a PACE Registered Paralegal®. I graduated from Bay Path University (formerly Bay Path College) in 2010 with a B.S. in Legal Studies and an Advanced Paralegal Certificate, magna cum laude. I began my legal career in 2011 as a Temporary Administrative Clerk in a Connecticut Superior Court. I worked there for six years, gaining the position of Administrative Clerk, handling many aspects of day-to-day operations from file intake to sentencing. I then relocated to Vermont in 2017 to join my husband and his family where I started at SRH Law (formerly Dunkiel Saunders Raubvogel & Hand, PLLC) until May 2024. In college, I was on the honor roll for many semesters and admitted as a member of Lambda Epsilon Chi, the National Honor Society in Paralegal/Legal Assistant Studies, and the Maroon Key Honor Society, the college’s Honor Society. I was the president of our Law Club for two years and worked to encourage students on their career path and also helped organize speakers and programs. I was a member of the Litchfield County Legal Professionals Association in Connecticut before joining the VPO and the Vermont Bar Association in 2017. I also like to stay up to date with regular CLE’s throughout the year. As the Vice President I’m committed to helping our organization grow and supporting the work of my fellow Board Members as well as currently working in a few chair positions as needed. |
