_“Completing my education while raising my young son was very challenging but also
rewarding. Growing up I experienced anxiety and I was surprised how much speaking with a
therapist allowed me to develop self-awareness and agency over my life. This sparked an
interest for me in this work and a passion for creating safe spaces for people to explore their
personal journeys. When I am not in the office, I can be found enjoying time at the gym, hiking,
playing soccer, traveling, and watching my son play hockey and lacrosse.”_
