About

I am a forensic psychology professional with a strong commitment to trauma-informed practice and ethical work at the intersection of mental health and the legal system. My experience centers on supporting individuals and families impacted by abuse and adversity through collaborative, multidisciplinary care. Currently serving within the University of Florida’s Division of Child Protection and Forensic Pediatrics, I contribute to structured interviews, psychosocial assessments, and case coordination efforts that prioritize child safety and advocacy. My long-term goal is to practice forensic psychology across diverse populations, continuing to bridge psychology and the justice system through evidence-based and compassionate approaches.
