“My goal is to make a difference in a person’s life by providing a safe environment, advocating for social justice, actively engaging in my community, helping clients develop and utilize problem-solving techniques and positive coping mechanisms.”

Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my blended family and going to the park, getting Starbucks, going on nature walks, and playing board games. I can also be found on the baseball field, coaching!
