LETTERS AFTER MY NAME:

Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW)

EDUCATION:

BA from Indiana University and MSW from University of Indianapolis.

FAVORITE THING ABOUT MY JOB:

I enjoy using creativity to help clients identify their strengths and reclaim their confidence and power to defeat the barriers and achieve their goals. Positive outcomes are not just for the client, they benefit families and communities.

BEST HEALTH ADVICE:

Learn to love yourself and taking advantage of the next opportunity to benefit yourself becomes easier. Learn to love what it means to be human and navigating the flaws and forgiveness makes sense. Learn to find joy and purpose processes involved in self-investment and putting in the work and motivation to succeed will be generated from within, not dependent upon those who want to help you.

MOTIVATION FOR HEALTH:

From high school mentor for elementary students and decades as an athletics coach to charter school teacher, I have always chosen to invest in human collaboration to help other people break free from plateaus, self-imposed limitations, and real external barriers to achieve their goals.

FAVORITE HEALTHY FOOD:

Deep fried, double-buttered, caramel-dipped, double-stuffed Oreos. If that's not available, I'll take a pomegranate.
