More about me

How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
I have a passion in helping the people I partner with create their own personal narratives that promote growth within their lives by being empathetic, striving to understand the challenges that person is facing, and partnering with them to discover solutions so that they can live the life they choose.

What's your favorite thing about being an IRIS consultant?
I enjoy being a TMG IRIS Consultant because I have the opportunity to provide a service that is beneficial to the people I partner with.

What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
I have a past experience in the mental health field as a case manager, and years of training that have helped me understand the development of both Dementia and Alzheimer's disease. I have learned all this by both by working hands-on with patients, as well as by taking courses that focused on the care of individuals diagnosed with the disease.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
In my free time I enjoy painting, drawing, and spending time with my family and dog.
