I am an advocate for the disabled. My days
are spent assisting individuals and veterans
with their claims for disability benefits
against the Social Security Administration,
the Veterans Administration, and in federal
court.
I grew up in the Dallas/Fort Worth area and
have lived all over the greater North Texas
area. I first joined Kraft & Associates in
1997.
