I am a social worker and a therapist in the Seattle area. I have been working in the non-profit and public service sector for the past 20+ years, which has included teaching at community colleges and overseas, working for the government at local and state levels, and starting a non-profit organization to help foster children. I love meeting and working with people in educational environments, therapeutic settings, and in the broader community, at home and abroad.

I also write books! Specifically memoir, non-fiction, vignettes, op-eds, personal essays, and little stories to share with family and friends.

When I'm not counseling or writing, I enjoy spending time with animals and being outside as much possible while hiking, swimming, and traveling.
