Originally from Wichita, Kansas, Tracie earned both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees from the University of Kansas.

After returning to the United States, she relocated to Atlanta, Georgia in 2004 and helped grow an English as a Foreign Language program from 20 students to more than 200 students within a few years.
As an international student advisor, Tracie frequently spoke with students who had immigration-related questions involving marriage, immigration status, or encounters with law enforcement. Those experiences ultimately led her to pursue a legal career focused on immigration law. She enrolled at Georgia State University College of Law in 2005.
During law school, Tracie served as President of the Immigration Law Society and Legislative Assistant Editor for the Law Review. She also participated in study abroad programs in Linz, Austria and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
