About me

I am dedicated to work that helps build an environment for every young person to thrive and live a purposeful life. I want to help establish spaces, no matter how large or small for each young person. I believe that in these spaces, even those who were previously disconnected, pursue meaning and happiness. Too often, unshared internal factors hinder young people from connecting or entering enriching spaces. My experiences in mental health and juvenile justice repeatedly demonstrates how interventions can facilitate the healing of past harm and support a young person's pursuits. Such pursuits result in stronger connections with friendships, families and communities.
