PROUDEST MOMENT IN MY CAREER
Whenever one of the vets we’re working with is able to remember and re-own the sense of their worth and regain a sense of hope and purpose for their future
RECENT BOOK I ENJOYED
High Price, Carl Hart, Ph.D
WHY I JOINED NATION’S FINEST
started working with trauma survivors and survivors of war and political torture in grad school and developed a passion for working with those who’ve been injured and marginalized as a result of their injuries
RECENT MOVIE OR TV SHOW I ENJOYED
NCIS – it’s really the only show I still watch, my mother had a huge crush on Leroy Jethro Gibbs
MOST REWARDING ASPECT OF MY ROLE AT NATION’S FINEST
Being able to support and train staff in providing quality clinical services – while retaining kindness and respect as the top priorities
FAVORITE ATHLETE
Magic Johnson – GO GREEN!! GO WHITE!!
EXCITING NATION’S FINEST PROJECT CURRENTLY IN WORKS
Working on increasing ways of including veterans who have successfully completed our programs in our services
PHRASE I’M KNOWN FOR SAYING
“Remember to breathe” (with a demonstration). I’ve gotten a lot of (mostly fond) mocking for this from the vets
SONG I LOVE (AND WHY)
“What Have I Done to Help?” by Jason Isbell – “what have I done to help and not myself”
