About

I am a motivated and creative social service professional. My passions include reintegration and criminal justice reform, history, advocating for greater access to affordable housing as well as for more equitable housing policies, care management and health care delivery, public health, and learning more about interventions with patients from a variety of socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds so that I can improve my direct practice work and be a more conscious practitioner. I am ambitious, dynamic, imaginative, and reliable; a versatile contribution to almost any organization. I love what I do and am perpetually looking to learn more. Currently employed by Upstate University Hospital.
