I have been working with families for over 7 years! Currently I work as an artist, & a Grant Writer for a nonprofit. Before this, I worked at Camp Starfish, a camp for children with disabilities, for 3 years. My positions included Lead Specialist, Administrator in the girl's village, & Director of Operations. I've also worked as a Clinician providing therapy for LGBTQ+ individuals with co-occurring mental illness & substance use. Before that, I worked as a Behavior Therapist working with students with autism & other behavioral needs. I also was the Director of the Brookline Teen Advantage program, where I ran an after school Teen SEL program. I have nannied for multiple families, including full time. I also worked for a Parks & Recreation summer camp for 3 years. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Curry College in only 3. 5 years where I majored in Psychology and Sociology, minored in Community Health & Wellness and Women's & Gender Studies, and concentrated in Developmental Psychology.
