I'm a human services leader, trainer, and leadership coach with nearly a decade of experience spanning frontline child welfare practice, trauma-informed parenting support, supervision, statewide systems coordination, and service as board president of a local nonprofit for 2.5 years, where I supported the executive team and led the board. I know this work from the inside — not just from a training room or a policy manual, but from the weight of a caseload, the complexity of a team, and the moments when leadership felt anything but simple.
