family and behavioral health

I feel a personal and professional duty to bring to light the difficulties that many families and individuals face just trying to get to the next day while finding hope. In 2021 I interviewed four families with Down syndrome in support of Down Syndrome Awareness Month. The results of my interviews required breaking the content into a three-part series.

Substance Use Disorder profiles and awareness

I am extremely proud of the articles I have written profiling people in addiction recovery, providing community support resources and destigmatizing substance use disorder. I am passionate about giving marginalized and at risk people a voice, and a chance at a better life.
