I'm a Child and Adolescent Counselor in a K-12 Special Ed school in Arizona. My area of expertise is helping children impacted by parental crime and incarceration. 

I, myself am an adult survivor of childhood abuse and trauma. My life was rocked by violence as a young child. I vowed to grow up and help other kids. I am a successful helping professional but along my journey, I forgot to care for myself.

My body is tired. I've gained and lost the same 80 pounds five times since I was 15. It is time for me to focus on me and my health.

I don't want to be skinny. I just want to be healthy.

Healthy is beautiful!!

         Here's a link of an interview I did with "Good Evening Arizona" on Ch. 3 in Phoenix.

              It features my advocacy for families impacted by homicide.
