Born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico, I received a Bachelor's in Psychology as well as a Bachelor's in Criminology at the University of New Mexico. I recently received my Masters in Social Work in Las Cruces, NM and am currently living and working in Las Cruces. My specialties are working with the previously incarcerated population, substance abuse, and mental health. I have over 5 years of experience working in behavioral health settings (primarily with nonprofit organizations) and find my biggest motivation in the people I work with.
I began my Motivational Interviewing practice in 2019 and became a MINT member in November of 2021. I have offered Motivational Interviewing training to various individuals, organizations and agencies around New Mexico including the Albuquerque Community Safety Department as part of their mandated onboarding.
