More About Me...because I couldn't fit it all in a small space!

I have many roles in life: I am a daughter, sister, aunt, niece, friend, writer, poet, philosopher, counselor, advocate, teacher and a deeply spiritual person. I'm a compassionate person who is passionately dedicated to seeing life as a blessing, living my life with as much gratitude as possible.

I earned a Master's Degree in Social Work from CSU,Long Beach and Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from CSU,Northridge. I have advocated successfully for myself and others, counseled people with mental and physical disabilities as well as of chronic mental illness and listened to the wisdom of seniors. Throughout my education I educated students and the community from elementary school through college about the needs of people with disabilities by sharing my personal experiences and knowledge.
