Summary

I have a passion for advocating on behalf of and alongside those who are on their journey to self-reliance. I strive to support individuals to be as independent as possible to the very best of their ability while respecting and accepting their limitations. I am looking to be part of a team that is progressive, forward-thinking, and passionate about helping individuals not only reach but exceed their goals.
