Get to know me

Prevention is my passion! Prior to my role at CARS, I conducted suicide prevention and substance use prevention in middle and high schools. I believe everyone has the power to make meaningful change in their communities, and my goal is to support them in having the tools they need to do so. I have a masters in social work and am a Certified Prevention Specialist in the state of California. When I’m not working I am either at a concert, spending time outside with my partner and our dog, or teaching myself a new hobby.
