Why Mackenzie?

Growing up, Mackenzie’s parents both had successful family businesses. She was taught the value of hard work and finding solutions to complicated problems. During high school, Mackenzie began to have an interest in the law. After shadowing the Honorable Spencer Ludington she fell in love with each aspect of the law and knew she wanted to attend law school.

Throughout her education, Mackenzie had many diverse internships and professional practices. Her passion and determination for the law, along with her experiences and value of hard work, contribute to the successful outcomes Mackenzie delivers to her clients. That, and the sage advice of her late grandfather: “Always work hard and appreciate every experience presented to you.” Sage advice indeed.
