McKenzie, originally from Athens, Alabama, now calls Pineville, North Carolina, home. She is a graduate of Birmingham-Southern College in Birmingham, Alabama. During her time in school, McKenzie was deeply involved in her sorority’s philanthropy, which focused on raising awareness about domestic violence. Through this experience, she volunteered at a local women’s shelter that provided refuge for women and children escaping abusive situations. It was during this time that McKenzie realized many of the individuals she met, particularly those seeking divorces, faced significant challenges in finding legal support that truly understood their unique circumstances. This inspired her to pursue a career in family law.

Family has always been a cornerstone of McKenzie’s life. She feels incredibly fortunate to have grown up in a nuclear household surrounded by a close and supportive extended family. Their unwavering encouragement has been instrumental in helping her achieve her dreams and goals, and she recognizes the profound impact a strong support system can have on a person’s success.

In her free time, McKenzie enjoys trying new foods, spending time with her beloved dogs, and exploring antique stores with her husband, whom she deeply adores.
