When students ask what it’s like to do this job, I share what is true for me: it’s a privilege to be invited into people’s minds and hearts, and working with ºÚÁÏ´«ËÍÃÅ students is a gift. I am dedicated to providing quality therapy to students, as well as making meaningful progress on efforts to promote collective wellbeing on our campus and in our communities. I seek to embody a holistic approach that is built upon creating authentic relationships, as I wholeheartedly believe that our relationships with ourselves and others are the building blocks for growth, change, and healing.
My dream dinner guests include Esther Perel, Mister Rogers, and Anderson Cooper. When I’m not in therapist mode, I like going to concerts and comedy shows, walking in nature, and learning new things.
