About

Hola!
I am am a passionate and multi-faceted registered peer counselor wearing many hats! I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and enjoy connecting with communities from across the globe. I have a background in community engagement, communications, and cultural studies, and have since graduation worked mostly in public health, non-profit programming, and case management.

I own my own professional organizing business where I help individuals and business owners with both physical organization processes and also life organizational ideas. I started my business before I became a peer and realized that most of the coaching I was doing around "stuff" was actually emotional pain and unresolved grief. I use my skills as a peer and someone with lived experience in all the roles that I find myself in and am especially passionate about immigrant, refugee, Indigenous lgbtqia2s, adoptee, and the many communities of survivors. I have navigated many experiences in my life and feel very confident in supporting people who have big T traumas and have gone through the systems many times and have a lot of misunderstood experiences.

I always lead with I am not what happened to me and tell that to everyone too, so who am I outside of this field? I love to be out in nature, walking or hiking with my two pups, swimming, paddleboarding, reading, creating art, spending time with friends, and being part of different community projects. I am passionate about the planet and make my own household goods and recently have tried to only use and e-bike or public transit. I am a very compassionate and non-judgemental person as I understand we are all doing our best and just need some genuine care and support. I am based on trauma informed practices and self agency always, and believe that people know what is best for them- I am only here to reflect back to others the greatness that already exists.
