  • In addition to being a Social Worker, I am also a mother of two and a wife. I genuinely value spending quality time with my family and friends. I enjoy participating in game nights and engaging in competitive activities like kickball and flag football to keep things lively. When I need to de-stress, I find peace in outdoor activities such as gardening or simply relaxing in our gazebo.
