Profile
Briana, a dedicated and compassionate attorney, brings a unique blend of resilience, determination, and legal acumen to her practice. Originally from Brownsville, Texas, Briana's journey in law began with a passion for advocacy and a desire to make a difference in her community.
Briana graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2018 and began her legal education at South Texas College of Law Houston in 2019. During law school, Briana not only excelled academically but also took on leadership roles, serving on the board of the Women's Law Society and co-founding the First Generation Law Student Association.
Briana's final semester of law school was marked by an unexpected and life-changing event: a severe car accident that tested her resilience and resolve. Despite the month she spent in the hospital, she remained steadfast in her studies, thus graduating on time in May 2022. After several months of intense recovery, Briana successfully took the Texas Bar Exam in February 2023 and became a licensed attorney in April 2023.
She began her legal career at the Cameron County District Attorney's Office, where she gained invaluable courtroom and trial experience. Her time as a prosecutor prepared her to tackle complex legal challenges with confidence and precision. Today, Briana's practice is rooted in a deep commitment to her clients and a passion for delivering results. Her personal experiences and professional background allow her to approach each case with a unique perspective, advocating for justice and protecting her clients' interests every step of the way.
In her free time, Briana enjoys riding around her family ranch, reading a fun novel on the beach, or simply taking her beloved dog, Bailey, for an evening stroll.
