What I do
This is my second year completing my work study with CHHR, and I am so happy to be here! Last year, I was able to be in the field conducting focus groups at Urban Peak locations for our Trauma Informed Design Project. I also keep all CHHR social media and website maintenance up to date for our team.
Professional Biography
I graduated from St. Norbert College in 2016 with a B.A. in Psychology and Theology. I am currently an MSW-Candidate at GSSW with an expected graduation date in June 2022. With my concentration on mental health, one of my greatest passion is being apart of the growth of my clients and working with them through a trauma informed lens. I also aim to make my practices social justice focused, which is why CHHR is such a great fit for me. Being able to work with folks experiencing homelessness during my whole undergraduate career and shifting focus to a research viewpoint has been really inspiring for me. I currently intern at Denver Family Institute, where I am also working toward a LMFT license.
