Savannah Childress

Detail-oriented professional with experience as a Court Clerk at the Sangamon County Building, excelling in document preparation and docket management. In December of 2024, I graduated highschool and got a job at the County Building. I was stuck in the basement answering phone calls, I told my mom "I will be a court clerk just wait", not even a month later I was moved up to the court clerk division. 2 months after that, I decided I want to be a paralegal. 6 months after that I graduated with my paralegal certification with a 92%.

I am young, but a hard worker. I have something I want to accomplish, and I am sure to get it done!
