Summary
Accomplished Court Reporter with extensive experience in digital reporting. Certified Electronic Reporter (CER) and Certified Digital Reporter (CCR) with a focus on innovative takedown methods. Proven ability to implement advanced technology and software for accurate, real-time transcripts. Expertise in courtroom and deposition settings ensures reliable reporting outcomes.
