Personal Profile

About Me

I would first like to highlight my intersectionality. I am a social worker, daughter, granddaughter, stepdaughter, girlfriend, advocate, student, athlete, friend, and Care Manager. I am a fierce advocate for the geriatric population, my clients, and my coworkers. The aging population is a growing field with endless opportunities for growth and development and numerous capacities to help others. These are just a few reasons I have fallen in love with the population and field of Care Management.

I look forward to continuing my education at George Mason University in the fall of 2023, working toward my Master of Social Work. While working part-time as a Care Manager with Elder Tree Care Management within the Northern Virginia Area, D.C., and Maryland.
