In my role as Behavioral Health Professional I integrate and apply my training as a Licensed Independent Social Worker with over a decade of professional experience working in the community with folks who have a range of cultural and health backgrounds. It has been my longstanding passion to work with and advocate for people who are in need. Some of the most rewarding moments of my professional life happen when I get to see a person go from a lived experience of feeling lost or hopeless to actually getting a long-unmet need met. I firmly believe people deserve to be seen and heard, as well as respected. I do my best to be someone that my patients and clients can count on to be treated with that respect and kindness. When I'm not working, I can usually be found hanging out with my spouse and kids, reading a psychological thriller, or playing with Thor who is my little dog with a big dog name.
