How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
It is crucial to take the time to get to know each person I partner with and listen carefully to make sure I have a clear understanding of their needs, interests, and goals.

I am excited to meet new people and help them achieve their goals. My clients are my favorite part of my job by far!
What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
In the Children's Long-Term Service Waiver, I got experience as a Service Coordinator, where I helped families navigate Medicaid to get the services they needed for their children with special needs. I look forward to applying this skill to adults with disabilities.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
In my free time, I love to travel around Wisconsin and photograph what I see. I feel lucky to live in a state with so many interesting sights!
