She was the first woman to serve as the Administrative Judge of the Family Court of St. Louis County and has lectured nationally and internationally on domestic violence issues.
A past president of Food Outreach, she has served on the Missouri Children’s Trust Fund and is currently a member of the boards of Caring for Kids and HomeWorks! She was appointed by the Missouri Supreme Court to serve on its Commission on Racial and Ethnic Fairness.
