More about me

How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
To be a good partner, I work to understand your wants, needs, and goals by communicating with you. From there, I will use my available resources to the best of my abilities in order to meet your needs. Through open communication and teamwork, I hope to assist you in achieving your goals while providing high quality service.

What's your favorite thing about being an IRIS consultant?
Above all else, I enjoy the ability to help people, and being an IRIS consultant allows me to fulfill that. Being a consultant means I get to help people choose how they want to live and receive care, and by doing so, hopefully they will achieve their goals.

What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
My education has played an important role in preparing me for a career in healthcare, however my practical work experience has taught me so much more. My previous experience in home health services has given me the opportunity to learn why a self-directed approach can be a better fit for someone's care, as well as understanding how people can utilize their chosen supports.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
In my free time, I like to explore the outdoors with my fiancé and our dog. I enjoy finding new hiking trails or parks nearby, and when time allows, I love visiting state and national parks. At home, I enjoy cooking and finding new recipes and food to try. I also like to get together with friends for a fun night out or relaxing at home with a good game.
