Hi! I am the parent to a 7 year old with a rare genetic disorder and multiple disabilities. I left my career as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the mental health field to become my child’s primary caregiver. After 6 years away from the professional world, I was selected for the 2022-2023 ACT LEND cohort and jumped at the opportunity to merge my personal and professional experiences. Upon completion of the ACT LEND program, I hope to work as a family advocate in a healthcare setting.
