My passion lies in causes such as the rights of the disabled, combating climate change & pollution both globally & locally, Firefighting & EMS, and LGBTQIA+ inclusion in the workplace. I have strong communication and writing skills, as well as vocational evaluation and curriculum development abilities. I possess over 15 years of experience in Human Services, working in Residential, Day Habilitation, and Vocational settings. I also have 8 years experience as an EMT-BASIC and am currently training to become an exterior firefighter. Vocationally, I enjoy instruction, writing, facilitating & coordinating services, and providing direct support. My mission is to assist those in need to live their lives with the greatest amount of independence, support, and dignity possible.
