In addition to her legal service work, Michelle is actively involved in local government oversight and land use matters. She serves as a vocal advocate for transparency, due process, and citizen participation, particularly in areas involving Unified Development Ordinances (UDO), zoning, and municipal accountability. Her work frequently includes analyzing ordinances, preparing public records requests, documenting official meetings, and assisting citizens in understanding their legal rights.
