About

Currently I am a member of the recovery support community in the capacity of a residential technician. I am in the process of completing my Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor application through the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals. During and after attending University I worked in restaurants where I managed high volume and high stress environments as a server and group sales coordinator. I’ve also spent time working in the retail sector where I’ve had the opportunity to hone business operation skills. My behavioral health experience spans multiple treatment settings and demographics. I am incredibly grateful to every client, peer, and program that has contributed to my understanding of care and community. I hold deep respect for people doing the brave work to expand their self awareness, shift their patterns, and become more aligned individuals.
