About Me
I am a psychology undergraduate, behavioral health technician, and former software engineer. I am entering a Master of Social Work program in March to become a clinical social worker with a long term focus on men and boys, youth development, and community mental health.
My work centers on practical, evidence informed care that blends counseling, prevention, and community based supports. I am building a foundation in therapy skills, advocacy, and research literacy, and I use my software background to create tools that make mental health services easier to access and easier to navigate.
