Work History

Therapist

Headlight Health
Portland, OR (Remote)
01.2024 - Current

Built strong rapport with clients, fostering trust and open communication for effective therapy sessions. I manage a caseload of about 30-50 clients. I do everything from the initial psychological assessment to direct care via therapy.

Digital Journalist

Fox Television Stations
Lake Mary, Florida
12.2022 - 01.2024

Anchored the news for 4 hours a day with live streaming daily content for the FOX Network. This was a unique role that combines the on-air piece with also being my own producer and booker/planner. This role combines being an anchor with also being a director and producer.

Counselor/Therapist

Better Help
Minneapolis, Minnesota
01.2022 - 03.2023

I mostly worked part-time, but this was my first venture into the world of teletherapy. I had a caseload of up to 80 people but that moved down to around 5-10 when I went part-time while working for FOX. A great learning experience that helped me learn more about the other options in online therapy.

Reporter/Anchor

WNDU-TV
South Bend, Indiana
07.2019 - 10.2021

I worked as a reporter doing day-turn stories during the week and was the weekend morning anchor as well. I also would fill in as a producer in emergency situations. I was very much a leader in this newsroom who helped teach the younger journalists but also helped with day-to-day coverage decisions.

News Reporter

WOOD-TV
Grand Rapids, Michigan
06.2017 - 06.2019

I worked three days as a morning reporter and two days as a nightside reporter. General assignment reporting but with a slight focus on mental health reporting during ratings periods.
