Being raised in an immigrant, working-class family taught me the value of respect, humility, and looking out for one another. I carry these values in any space I operate in, whether it's in my own family or professional space. It can be a struggle to reach out for help when you might be disconnected from yourself and others, which is why I value you reaching out to me. I help address issues regarding your past, present, and future self. To heal, I help you take steps to break negative generational cycles. I incorporate a social justice lens to analyze how our identities, cultural, and social forces impact our mental health.

My commitment to social justice has driven me to become a mental health professional. Social injustices impacts our mental health in a significant way and I am committed in addressing this at an individual level so that we can see the positive ripple effects of healing within people's lives.
Family, creative writing, basketball, hip-hop, succulents, traveling, and learning about the universe.
Gratitude helps me put things into perspective and allows me to bring in all the people that have helped me be where I am today.
I spend time with family, go on runs, play pick-up basketball, listen to music, and explore new places.
