More about me
How do you Partner with people to 'clear the path ahead'?
I let the people be the guide to their own destiny, just as I have done myself.
What's your favorite thing about being an IRIS consultant?
Helping people reach their goals and seeing them grow more independent.
What past experience prepared you to become an IRIS Consultant?
I enjoyed working for a Family Care agency for five years and seeing people gain independence and becoming a member of the community in every sense of the term. My experience of more than 5 years of partnering with people with developmental disabilities, physical disabilities, and elderly populations has been some of the most rewarding part of my career.
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
I love the outdoors and animals. So I go camping, fishing and sight seeing whenever I get a chance. I am also a huge Packer fan!
