I grew up in Orange County, where I was surrounded by the world of musical theatre, dance, and visual arts. My love for human stories and understanding the emotional depth of characters I portrayed led me to pursue a BFA in Acting at Boston University. Afterward, I spent time in New York and New Mexico, chasing my theatre and acting dreams. However, when the pandemic hit and the industry shut down, I found myself drawn to a new path.

I began volunteering for RAINN’s crisis hotline and became a mentor with Big Brothers Big Sisters. The fulfillment I felt from this work was undeniable, and it sparked a desire in me to go further in helping others. This led me to earn my Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University in 2024. During my time there, I began training at California Family Institute, working with community members in Orange County and discovering Narrative Therapy, which felt like a natural fit given my love of stories.

In my work as a therapist, I believe that every person I encounter has a unique and singular life experience. I see myself as a curious and nonjudgmental conversational partner, walking alongside my clients as they navigate their challenges and rewrite their narratives. My background as a creative artist allows me to bring a unique perspective to therapy. I incorporate art, creativity, and engaging questions into my approach, tailoring each session to meet the specific needs of the individuals and couples I work with.
