More about me

How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
I partner with people and help clear the path ahead by assisting them with their self-advocacy. I like to get to know what the person wants and needs, and then work with them to find ways to achieve those goals.

What's your favorite thing about being an IRIS consultant?
My favorite thing about being a TMG IRIS Consultant is helping individuals create the most self-fulfilling, meaningful life that they choose to have.

What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
I am certain that my educational journey has afforded me the knowledge needed to become a TMG IRIS Consultant. However, I truly believe that my experience growing up with a parent who was visually impaired is what has prepared me to successfully preform as an IRIS Consultant. I learned at an early age to strive for efficiency with every task performed, while never neglecting the importance of respect and dignity for all.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
In my free time I enjoy spending time with my husband and children, being out in nature and reading fiction books.
