Dedicated to advocating for my clients to get the best possible outcome.Unlike many of my colleagues, becoming an attorney was actually not my intended career path. My parents were the first in my family to graduate from college and none of my relatives had attended law school. Instead, I grew up in west Cobb County playing basketball and baseball – lots of baseball. Those days taught me a lot about the power of teamwork, the thrill of competition, and the necessity of hard work. In addition to being born and raised here, my roots in this community spread to Marietta High School (where both my parents graduated as well) and Marietta First Baptist Church just off the Marietta Square. As a Blue Devil at MHS, I continued to play sports, but my parents were strong advocates for doing well academically. Fortunately, that encouragement paid off and allowed me to attend Mercer University on an academic scholarship. While there, I joined the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity, made many lifelong friends, and eventually graduated cum laude with a degree in Economics in 2007.

- So, in 2007 I began my legal studies at Mercer University’s Walter F. George School of Law. During each summer of law school, I returned to Marietta where I was fortunate enough to intern at the Law Offices of Andrew W. Jones. Those summers were particularly enjoyable for me because they not only gave me a chance to learn how to practice law (something most law schools are woefully inadequate at doing), but they also helped me to realize that representing plaintiffs in personal injury matters could allow me to truly help people. Fortunately, after graduation I passed the Georgia Bar Exam and immediately began at the Law Offices of Andrew W. Jones representing injured victims in their claims against negligent drivers, property owners, and businesses. Later, in 2015 Andrew invited me to join him as a partner, and Jones & Swanson was born.
