I obtained my B.S. in Human Services with a minor in sociology and my M.S. Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA. I began working at a private practice providing substance use counseling both in groups and individually before and during my master's program. During my master's, I also worked with Virginia Beach city providing services to adults dealing with SMI and homelessness. After the completion of my program, I began my residency for counseling, working at an integrated care hospital and with the city providing crisis intervention to individuals in crisis, along with completing intake assessments for people incarcerated for substance use or mental health-related issues. During my education, I have worked on various research projects and presented at conferences. One of the studies I worked on was published in February 2019 in the Journal of College Student Psychotherapy. My recent research interest is with mental-health seeking behaviors, trauma, and supervision. During my first semester at Radford University, I presented at the Gender Symposium in November. I enjoy hiking, spending time with my partner, my cat, and doing photography.
