More about me

How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
I work with each individual to identify needed services or supports. Then I will work with you to optimize your IRIS budget to gain access to these services and supports to help you to achieve your goals.

What's your favorite thing about being an IRIS consultant?
My favorite part about being a TMG IRIS Consultant is creating connections with the people I serve, and assisting them in identifying and gaining access to the services they need to live their best possible life.

What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
I have worked with diverse populations for 23 years, and the experiences that I have had in both working in the IRIS program as well as a day program have helped me to develop an understanding of what types of services are available, and how to help the people I partner with access them. I have enjoyed, both on a professional and personal level, the conversations I’ve had with the many individuals I’ve partnered with over the years.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
In my free time, I watch anything and everything football related! When there is no football, I enjoy watching the Milwaukee Bucks as well as college sports. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading, going to the theater to watch movies, and going for long walks with my wife and my dog.
