My passion for working in healthcare and with those at end of life started from when I was young. My mom was a hospice nurse and growing up, I can remember her making calls to patients and families at all times of the night. We volunteered at children’s bereavement camps together each summer, and her continued compassion for others is something I’ve proudly absorbed.

While I’m fortunate to still have my mom with me, I’ve now counseled many who unfortunately can’t say the same. Grief and Illness hits us all differently, and my social work education helps me to see both the beauty and challenge of this and be able to pivot to support you in a way that you need most.

I’ve been companioning those with illness for over 8 years, with 6 years as a hospice social worker. I’ve dedicated my entire professional career to this work, and enjoy leaning into some of the toughest conversations most of us will ever have.

A lover of all things outdoors, I spend most of my free time savoring the smallest moments of beauty that nature provides. I enjoy camping, backpacking, hiking, biking, a good picnic, and finding the most beautiful Colorado sunset spots.
