| D. Grace Carter lives and works in Raleigh, North Carolina. She received her BS
from Florida State University in Tallahassee, Florida, where she flourished as
a costumed song and dance character at Chuckie Cheese®. Local Tallahassee
attorneys recognized her unique skill set and hired her as a word processor.
Although she missed the applause, the desire to dance with a flaming cake
subsided and she focused on becoming a paralegal. |
|
| Grace found a mentor and new home when she moved to North Carolina in 1990.
Patent attorney, James D. Myers, introduced her to the world of intellectual
property litigation. Grace discovered that intellectual property law allowed
her to stretch her intellectual muscles and she remained at Myers Bigel Sibley
& Sajovec until April of 2004 when she accepted a position with Nelson
Mullins Riley & Scarborough. She has left the world of intellectual
property to focus on state and federal litigation. |

| As a paralegal educator, Grace has enjoyed sharing her life and work experience
with students at Meredith College. In her legal technology classes, she
instructs her students how to use the electronic tools available for today’s
paralegals. |
