Over 20 years ago, I discovered a passion for working with people who struggle with addictions.
While each person’s journey is unique, there is a common thread among those who find true
peace in their recovery: the forgiveness and healing found in Jesus.
 

Empathy, a deep sense of purpose and experience, determines me to create positive change in our communities for those who are vulnerable and have suffered from addictions. For the past 12 years, I have dedicated myself to supporting individuals on their path to recovery. I've worked and volunteered on many levels for various organizations, serving where the need is the most. Today, my strengths are focused on prevention programs and working closely with our schools to help grow and nurture the next generation
