Biography

I grew up in Kansas City and then moved to Colorado after high school to attend CCU and never left. I have worked in the field of Developmental Disabilities and Behavioral Health since 2009: working in case management for Early Intervention through Developmental Pathways, providing ABA therapy in home and community for Behavior Services of the Rockies, working as a Behavioral Health Specialist at Children's Hospital of Colorado, and providing private practice therapy for children and adolescents through Center for Valued Living.

I live in Littleton, CO with my husband and three children. We are busy with all sorts of sports activities and musical theater. We enjoy spending time in the mountains, and I love coaching youth volleyball in the summer and fall at Front Range Christian School.
