As the Director of the Firearm-Related Harm & Violence Prevention (FHVP) Program Office I oversee and focus on helping communities design and implement their own firearm-related harm prevention strategies. In addition to providing technical assistance and training based on the needs and wants of communities, the FHVP Program will outreach to Colorado young people, parents, educators, faith leaders, firearm owners, researchers, local political leaders and many others across the state who want to be part of the solution to ensure their unique perspectives are included in this public health approach to firearm-related harm prevention. These outreach efforts will inform the development of a strategic plan to build action from the 2023 Roundtable report and support the creation of a second statewide convening later this year.

As chief success strategist I consult and provide assessment & strategic insight into a variety of projects including personal development, career, business development, youth engagement, law enforcement/ community engagement, community re-entry, gangs & youth violence prevention, intervention and critical response.I specialize in personal development training, coaching, goal setting training, mastermind development, mentorship, community service, volunteer, program management, event planning,
