Before starting at BB&K, Caroline clerked for an Associate Justice on the Supreme Court of North Carolina. She assisted the Justice by drafting opinions on topics including separation of powers under the state constitution, utilities and ratemaking cases, the status of charter schools as quasi-governmental agencies, real estate contract disputes, sovereign immunity, and more.

While clerking, she developed strong legal writing skills, a close attention to detail, and a habit of double-checking every factual assertion.
