With over 11 years of experience working with veterans across urban, rural, and suburban settings at the Department of Veterans Affairs, I have significant expertise in the issues veterans face. This work is deeply meaningful to me, and I am committed to continuing to serve this population.

Journalists

I have specialized training from the Global Center for Journalism and Trauma in understanding the professional culture and occupational challenges journalists face. I also received training from the Freedom of the Press Foundation on digital security best practices for telehealth. I consider it a privilege to work with news professionals.
