Get to Know Me

Why did you become a mental health professional?

At the age of 3, my mom became a foster parent. I have 6 adopted siblings and as a family, we have fostered over 50 children. These children and experiences profoundly shaped my life and chosen career path. I have a passion for guiding others to identify their strengths and full potential enabling them to evolve into the best version of themselves.

What are your interests outside of work?

My interests outside of work include having new experiences and spending time with my family. We love going to Disneyland, fashion, reading, and exercising.

What is one thing you do daily that supports your well-being?

My days can all look a little bit different but each day will consist of at least one of the following: exercising, getting outdoors for a walk with my kids, or watering my plants in my yard while listening to an audiobook.

How do you recharge?

As a mom, sometimes I just need to sleep in or get a nap in! I also love listening to music or watching Gilmore Girls reruns.
