I was born and raised in Chicago to parents who regularly demonstrated charitable acts to the vulnerable and underserved in the community. This ignited a passion in me to help people. After moving to Denver, Colorado I majored in social work and graduated undergrad in 2009 and graduate school in 2010. My 16 years in the mental health field covers a multitude of settings (neighborhoods, classrooms, day treatment, court houses, inpatient care, and private practice), diverse populations (children, adolescents, adults, seniors, people of color, LGBTQ+, immigrants, and people with disabilities) and substantial mental health diagnoses. In 2020 my family and I relocated to Houston, where I was fortunate enough to further my career at the esteemed Menninger Clinic until 2023. Starting this practice allows me to do what I love, helping clients achieve their self-appointed goals using strengths they underrated or never knew they had.
