Prior to becoming a Master in Rehabilitation Counseling,
I earned my Bachelors in Psychology and Minor in Multi-Cultural Studies from The University of Missouri-Columbia, Honors College, in 2011. After undergrad, I joined Teach For America (TFA), serving as a corps member and active alumna. While in TFA I taught Visual Arts, Media Literacy, and Science-Art Enrichment, in addition to writing and testing curriculum. I was awarded the honor of Teacher of the Year, in Houston Independent School District, and founded ‘Ladies League,’ a support group for pre-teen and teen girls. Ladies League focused on self-esteem, understanding boundaries, building confidence, and navigating mental health through the lens of an adolescent female in our society. After spending time in the Education sector, I shifted my focus to Healthcare, where I gained a decade worth of experience by partnering with long-term and short-term care communities to meet the needs of our aging population through comprehensive and compassionate care.
