Hello! I consider myself an introverted-extroverted person meaning I can be too myself and enjoy being around people. I am married with one preschool daughter, whose personality is blossoming. I love to shop (window shopping that is based on the budget), reading, watching you-tube videos, gaining knowledge, and spending time with friends. My clinical background includes working with children, teens, and adults. I just enjoy listening to people and helping them figure out helpful ways to cope with their problems or even meet their dreams and goals. I have primarily worked with children and youth impacted by the foster care system, but just enjoy working with youth because I believe that they have something to say and it is important for them to feel safe to express their thoughts and feelings, so I enjoy being that "sounding board" for them. Also, I enjoy relating to people and having fun. I want people to see me for my strengths and to not focus on my weaknesses, so I do the same in my clinical work by focusing on strengths and solutions. My purpose, passions, and identity are grounded in my Christian faith. Lastly, a fun fact is that my first and middle name is spelled the exact way minus one letter, so I usually respond to either one.
