My heart lies in social justice work and helping people find healing from systems of harm, as well as healing from intergenerational trauma dynamics and patterns.

For nearly a decade, I have worked in social services in many capacities, and have extensive experience in sober coaching, mentorship, treatment case management, advocacy, group facilitation, crisis management, harm reduction, consultation, and intervention.

I have and continue to work specifically with adolescents who have experienced sexual trauma and exploitation in the role of advocacy and mentorship since 2018. I apply trauma-informed care and empowerment-based approaches in my work to address the whole person and honor their full story and experience rather than the presenting symptoms.

I firmly believe in meeting people where they are at and am strongly against using a “one size fits all” method, as each human is unique and has unique needs.
