About

I am a social worker experienced in working with children, adults, and families from all walks of life in both medical and mental health settings. I graduated from the University of Southern California with a Master in Social Work in August 2014. Colleagues know me as a patient and caring person who is dedicated in making change in the lives of others. I follow a strengths and systems theoretical approach to my practice, focusing on the strengths of my clients. I work well in an interdisciplinary team as well as on my own.
