Info | Growing up in Lincoln Heights, Yvette faced many challenges that could have easily quashed her relentless enthusiasm. Raised by her grandmother in public housing, Yvette’s family struggled to make ends meet and many friends and family members dropped out of school or fell prey to in criminal activity. Even as a child, Yvette looked past her challenges and decided at the age of eight she wanted to become a lawyer. It didn’t matter to her that no one in her family had ever even attended college. Even at eight, Yvette understood the power of hard work, dedication, and focusing on the future.
Yvette achieved this goal, and many others along the way. After graduating from Princeton High School, Yvette became the first in her family to graduate college, at Miami University. In 2004, she made her young self very proud, receiving her juris doctor degree from the University of Cincinnati College of Law.
After graduating, Yvette practiced law at several firms before developing and directing Miami University’s first Pre-Law Program. In 2014, Yvette earned her M.B.A. degree from Xavier University. She currently serves as Counsel at Ulmer & Berne LLP.
In 2005, Yvette was recognized as one of the Business Courier’s Forty under 40 and a YWCA Rising Star. In 2014, Yvette was honored as one of the YWCA’s Career Women of Achievement.
