About
My dedication to this work is deeply rooted in lived experience, which has cultivated a profound empathy and resiliency. As a Certified Peer Counselor currently in the Substance Use Professional program while pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Behavioral Healthcare at Centralia College, I bring both professional expertise and a personal commitment to breaking the stigmas and barriers that many of our neighbors face daily. My goal has always been to educate, enrich, and empower individuals, helping to break the chains of generational poverty while fostering strength-based, client-focused solutions.
