I graduated from Springfield Tech Community College in 1997 with an Associates Degree in Nursing. I have had the honor of working for many wonderful non-profit health care agencies as a direct care nurse and working my way up to Director of Nursing for a local behavioral heath organization. After 20 years of nursing, I decided to pursue a new dream, to work as a clinical therapist. I retuned to college and graduated from Simmons University in 2018 with my Masters in Social Work. My focus is in trauma work with adolescents and adults.
