I’ve had a diverse career, from hotline manager to hairstylist to crisis counselor, and I’m passionate about helping others. Having navigated challenges like mental health struggles, caring for aging parents, and living with a partner with ADHD, I bring personal experience to the table. I’ve been in therapy since I was seven, growing up with a mentally ill mother and an alcoholic father, which has deepened my understanding of mental health. Currently, I work as a crisis counselor at National 988 and a local nonprofit, supporting people through tough moments.
