Twyla Carter went to law school a little under 20 years ago with the intent of becoming a public defender, and the desire has never gone away—though she has picked up some additional titles along the way.
“I’m a public defender to the core,” Carter said in an interview with the Law Journal. “I only wanted to go to law school to be a public defender.”
