I received my B.A. at the University of California,Santa Cruz. I then received my Ed.S. in Education from Sacramento State. I have held a variety of clinical, vocational, and leadership positions supporting individuals with behavioral, social-emotional, developmental and learning challenges including job coach, a community specialist for the Department of Developmental Services, and as a Research Assistant at the UC Davis Mind Institute.
As a parent to two young children, I'm constantly learning and adapting to the challenges and joys of parents.
If you are here, it is because you have concerns regarding your child, yourself, or your family. I'm excited for the opportunity to talk to you about how I can reduce barriers to personal and academic success.
