I’m a 39 year old who works in a 3.5 setting I also have worked in the medical field for 19 years My story is rooted in helping others. After working in healthcare for many years and witnessing how addiction, mental health challenges, and incarceration can affect families, I chose to turn those experiences into purpose. I became a certified peer support professional so I could help others feel heard, supported, and reminded that they are not alone.
