About


I’m a counselor, coach, and educator.

I’m passionate about helping people overcome adversity. And truth is, all humans face adversity- including you. So whatever unique circumstances you might be facing, know that you deserve the support you need to help you heal and grow. 

Aside from counseling and coaching, I’ve spent over 23 years mentoring individuals in life skills, career transitions, relationships, and life recovery. My resume includes behavioral health and higher education. Additionally, I’m a native New Mexican who relocated to the beautiful state of Arizona in 2010. In my free time, you can find me hiking a trail, taking a road trip, or reading a book at my favorite coffee shop.
