How do you spend your free time?

Spending quality time with my family.

What’s your favorite quirk about yourself?

I know A LOT of music song lyrics.

What does social justice mean to you?

Social justice means equity for every individual and social group. However, in our culture, due to white supremacy, patriarchy, ableism, and classism, marginalized groups do not experience equity. With consistent systemic reflection and action, change can be achieved. In therapy, social justice would look like empowering the client, while also confronting systemic injustice and inequity.

How do you believe change happens?

Change happens through vulnerability, taking responsibility and risks. This quote has always spoken to me regarding change.

“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. – Anaïs Nin”
