One of my favorite things to do is spend time with my family and friends. I absolutely love being in the outdoors, whether it’s hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking, you name it! I also love to cook, bake and eat. When I have free time, one of my favorite things to do is find a new vegetarian recipe and cook.

I chose the field of counseling because I want to make mental health more widely discussed, accepted, and accessible. I am extremely passionate about helping those with chronic illnesses, specifically younger individuals. I have had chronic illnesses since I was in middle school, so I know how they can affect your mental health, and I want to help and advocate for those who are going through what I went through.

My main professional goals are to graduate, become licensed, and eventually open up my own practice one day.
