My current work focuses on grant oversight including writing, managing, and reporting. Before NCCADV, I worked for the NC Department of Public Safety in crime victim services at the NCSAVAN program. I was also a Grants Management Specialist there. I have direct service experience in juvenile justice and child protective services in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. I also did a cold case review project for the Metropolitan Police Department in Washington, D.C. I have a B.S. in Psychology from Kutztown University, and an M.A. in Forensic Psychology with a Juvenile Justice focus from Marymount University.

I lived in Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Virginia before moving to North Carolina. I enjoy sports, concerts, and theater. I also like trying new craft projects and spending time with my family.
