More about me
I began my career in human services working with young adults with autism through the IRIS program in 2010. Little did I know, about a decade later I would be brought back into the IRIS program serving as a Training Coordinator and an IRIS Consultant. I obtained my BachelorÕs Degree in Community Education and Engagement and went on to serve in a few different positions in the nonprofit sector including a manager at a home care agency and a fundraiser for the United Way. In my free time I love to volunteer at local agencies to learn more about my community and neighbors. I spend most my time volunteering at an agency for individuals with vision impairment and as an election worker at the polls.
I have lived in Milwaukee my entire adult life and am passionate about supporting the community within the city and in the surrounding areas. Some of my interests include pets, photography, camping, and ice cream.
