I am a lifelong resident of Washington. I love the outdoors and my dogs. I started my career as a paramedic for 11 years before I became interested in mental health. As a social worker in an emergency room, I gained valuable experience with crisis mental health evaluations, safety planning, and working with clients struggling with substance use.
