More about me

How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
As your partner, I want to learn about you and your goals so that we can work together to achieve them and get the most out of your IRIS budget.

What's your favorite thing about being an IRIS consultant?
As a big believer in self-directed care (because that is what I would want for myself), I love being able to help people get the most out of life on their own terms. It makes me happy to be able to help my community members in any way that I can.

What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
I was born and raised in Racine, WI, and have a large family that is very involved in the community. Because of my upbringing, I have learned how to be a part of something that is bigger than myself. While I believe my schooling is important, my life experiences mean more to me and have helped prepare me to become a TMG IRIS Consultant.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
I love to cook, go to concerts, work out, and spend time with my family. I also love animals (I'm obsessed with cats) and volunteer at animal shelters as often as I can.
