She passed the California Bar on her first attempt and was thereafter sworn in as a licensed California attorney. For the past 6 years, Ann’s legal pursuits have been focused on the practice area of criminal law and procedure.

She assisted Justice Johnson with the drafting of judicial opinions, one of which was published as a case of first impression. (People v. Russell (2005) 129 Cal.App.4th 776.)

She then became an associate for the Law Office of Michael Cabrera, where she represented clients in criminal and immigration cases.
