“The graveyards are full of people the world could not do without” - Elbert Hubbard
Personal Philosophy: My personal philosophy is built around a high work ethic, steady leadership with practical systems, and a deeply rooted desire to be of service to things bigger than myself. I believe people are capable of far more growth than they often realize, especially when they are surrounded by the right structure, support, and accountability. I try to approach life’s pressure & challenges with a calm demeanor, a sense of humor, and a willingness to do the hard work for the people around me. With a wide range of life experience, my values have settled into being the best human I can be while bringing out the best in others.
Path: My path into mental health came from seeing how much the right support system can change a person’s life. While therapy itself is deeply human, face-to-face work, the client experience is also shaped by everything happening behind the scenes: the first phone call, scheduling, billing, communication, follow-through, and the systems that keep care accessible and consistent. I care about this field because every smoother process, better system, and stronger team ultimately helps someone access & succeed with care during a difficult season of life. My role allows me to serve that mission from the operational side by developing the administrative team, strengthening the systems that support care, and helping clinicians stay focused on what they do best: helping people heal, grow, and move forward.
Experience: My experience in this field has been shaped by more than six years of working within Mental Edge Counseling, where I have grown alongside the practice and gained firsthand experience in the systems, people, and daily operations that make quality mental health care possible. Over that time, I have had the opportunity to oversee and/or work closely with the administrative, billing, clinical, medical, marketing, HR, & business-to-business relations aspects of the practice. This ultimately, has given me a deep respect for both the people receiving care and the people working hard to provide it. Outside of Mental Edge, my background in Wildland fire & aviation, emergency medicine, large-scale disaster incident management, & community training has strongly influenced how I approach this work. Those environments have taught me the value of calm decision-making, clear communication, strong systems, accountability, and taking care of the team so the team can take care of others.

TMS Technician
My passion for helping people began with my own experience of losing a family member due to mental illness. Along with having a strong foundation through my work in dialysis and home health , I graduated in 2018 with a Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Administration. Having witnessed firsthand the impact of mental illness on families, I know this is where I belong, I have a deep, mission-driven commitment to expanding access to compassionate mental health resources. I love the fact that I have an opportunity to hold a dual administrative role, where I manage operational workflows as the Practice Manager as well as getting to work with our TMS clients and see firsthand the positive impact that this innovative treatment has on their mental well-being and overall quality of life.
