No human is one dimensional and I am no exception. My practice is shaped by my life experiences, values and identities. Some of my many roles include parent, partner, animal caregiver, crafter, and athlete. I am driven by my values of equity, inclusion, safety, accountability, acceptance, advocacy, and accessibility. It is deeply important to me that client’s not only feel safe and respected, but also seen as their whole selves.
As a member of the San Lorenzo Valley, I experience the joys and challenges that come with living in the mountains and being a part of this close community. With my office being in Ben Lomond, I often share with my clients the experiences of power outages, road closures, wild weather and so on, reinforcing that we are all, very much, in this together.
