About me
Helping isn’t something I learned — it’s the core of who I am. My path into advocacy wasn’t one moment or one crisis; it was years of being the person people turned to when things got complicated, confusing, or overwhelming. Over time, I realized that what felt natural to me — stepping in, organizing chaos, navigating systems, and protecting people from getting lost in them — is something many families desperately need. I became a patient advocate because this work aligns with my purpose: to guide, support, and stand with people when the system doesn’t.
Formal Education
North-West College, Licensed Vocational Nurse, 2019
Southern California Counseling Center by CalMHSA, Peer Support Training, 2026
Additional Skills
I bring a creative and intuitive approach to advocacy. Outside of my professional work, I write poetry, love to sing, & I use artistic expression to stay grounded, connected, and present. This helps me bring calm, clarity, and perspective to high‑stress situations. I’m skilled at reading people, understanding emotional dynamics, and communicating in ways that help clients feel supported and understood.
