What can I tell you about myself that I am comfortable with sharing but will also give you a glimpse into who I am? Let’s start with the obvious, I’m a writer. I love to write and I’ve always loved to write for as long as I can remember. I think one thing that comes along with a love of writing is a love of reading, so yes, I love to read just as much as I love to write.

I am also passionate about mental health. Mental health for myself and others. I am currently in school to earn a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology with the goal of becoming a licensed MFT/LPCC. A lot of my thoughts are around the individual and how events, situations or experiences can affect an individual’s mental health. I think there is a trend to be “respectable” or accommodating to the feelings, thoughts, or experiences of others oftentimes to the detriment of the individual and I think there is room for both.

So in addition to being a writer/student who is passionate about mental health, I am also a parent, driver, full-time employee, and everything in between which I think all contribute to who I am and how I view the world.
