Emily Clarke

Associate

My name’s Emily Clarke and I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. My mother was a Pharmaceutical Sales professional and my father was a Commercial Real Estate Agent.

I attended St. Piux X High School in Atlanta where I was active in track and field, tennis, and softball.

After graduating high school I enrolled at the University of Georgia. I had always wanted to attend college there because I grew up in Georgia and came from a big UGA family. Go Dawgs!!

I wanted to become an attorney because I had always wanted to have a professional and demanding career. After graduating from UGA in 2012, I was accepted into law school at the Catholic University of America in Washington, DC. I had always wanted to experience our nation’s capital!

Prior to starting at Zelenitz, Shapiro & D’Agostino in 2015, I worked as a summer associate at Silis & Associates in D.C. where I was able to gain valuable experience in family law.
