About Me
I am 29 and I have been working in youth behavior and mental health for about 7 years now. I graduated from Sewanee: The University of the South in 2015 and Nova Southeastern University in 2019. I am currently work for Mental Health America of the MidSouth and I am the program supervisor and west TN coordinator for or Erasing the Stigma Youth Program. I am very passionate about educating youth about mental health and giving them the resources and tools needed to help them better their mental health.
Experience
I have worked with children from ages 3-18 years old. I have experienced working in after school programs assisting students with academics needs, I have provided one-on-one tutoring to elementary aged students, and I have also worked one-on-one with children with autism. I have a variety of experience with working with youth of all ages and from various backgrounds.
Approach
As a child, I grew up in a low income environment. I was fortunate enough to have faculty members that provided me with tools needed to excel academically. I was able to apply myself and have a support system to push me towards a bright future. I want to be the support system, the resource, and the helping hand that students need. Some students need that extra push and I want to be able to lead them to a brighter future.
