I have always known that I wanted to pursue a career in Social Work, however I choose to wait until my children were grown to pursue this passion. As a devoted stay-at-home mom, I navigated the delegate dynamics of child rearing, fostering an environment of love, growth, and emotional support for my two sons. This experience equipped me with a profound understanding of child development, hands on experience in conflict resolution, and instilled in me a deep compassion for the wellbeing of children. My tenure as a stay-at-home mom who interacted with children from many different backgrounds and home situations uniquely positions me to bring a wealth of empathy, insight, and practical understanding to the challenges faced by families.
