I am a Learner
& a Leader

Over the past decade as a mental health professional, I’ve come to understand that true well-being includes not just individual healing, but relational health as well. My passion for helping people build and repair meaningful connections led me to pursue a PhD at the University of Minnesota, where I focused my research on forgiveness—exploring what it takes to mend hurting and damaged relationships. My work is driven by a desire to uncover the essential elements of reconciliation and to teach others how to forgive, heal, and relate to one another from a place of love rather than pain or fear.
