She worked as an attorney for Chairman William Thompson and then as a District Hearing Officer for the Industrial Commissions of Ohio. After working as, a District Hearing Officer, she realized that she missed fighting for injured workers’ rights. Watching her business grow, the real satisfaction is knowing that she is making a difference in each and every client. Carla is a wife and is a mother to one son. In her spare time Carla enjoys getting involved with different charities, is a small group leader and kid’s ministry teacher at her church in Columbus, Ohio.
