My first and main priority is building a trusting, empathetic, therapeutic relationship, allowing the client to feel comfortable and safe in a nonjudgmental, collaborative environment. Working from a person-centered approach, I put client's views and cultural backgrounds into heavy consideration.

I became a mental health professional because I've been in a client's shoes before. Knowing the difficulties and the emotional pain one can experience is a deeply shared experience, and I wanted to shift my experiences into one where I can now give back and be empathetic to those who are in need of mental health services.

Spending time with my husband and my son, my family, my two pets, cooking different cuisines, and traveling/road trips.

I enjoy escaping into video games and I love to sing!
