Hello! I am excited to meet you and wanted to tell you a little about me.

I have been practicing in the field of social work since 2004, and I greatly enjoy working with people. I spent the early years of my practice working with youth and families in Intensive Outpatient Services (IOS). From 2011-2013 I had the privilege of spending time working in the physical health field as a nurse. In 2012, I co founded a non profit, A Village for One, in Oregon, which focused on therapeutic services for minors impacted by sexual exploitation and trafficking. I ran the programming for this organization until 2024.

Through Another Vantage I now enjoy the slower pace of private practice while seeking to continue connections with my therapeutic services community. I have a passion for helping all people, and a strong drive to advocate for youth who often fall through the cracks.

In my free time I love to spend time in the sun and hanging out with friends and family.
