Frost earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Illinois College of Law in 2006.

He worked as an associate at Zukowski Law Offices in 2005 and later served as an associate at Wimbiscus Law Office, PC in 2009. Those roles gave him exposure to the routines of a busy practice.

The positions required juggling multiple matters at once and keeping clients informed through the lifecycle of a case.
