More About Me
I recently moved to Madison from Fort Worth, Texas and am excited to get to know the Madison area better. I grew up around many individuals with physical, mental, intellectual, auditory and/or visual disabilities and knew from a young age that teaching and working with individuals with disabilities was what I was meant to do!
I am passionate about helping individuals with disabilities become self-advocates, and I thrive on finding creative ways to help them do so.
When I’m not working, I love spending time with my family, talking walks, and reading.
