She has worked in the public schools, private clinics, and a skilled nursing facility. Her passion is working with adolescents and young adults and helping them transition to the workforce and adult life. She has worked in a high school setting for 15 years and a post-secondary setting for six years. She loves working on real-world skills, pushing her students to be independent and productive citizens with a good quality of life. She believes that there is dignity in risk and that we need to push our students to let them fly, not hold them back because of our fears. In her view, there should be no readiness model to life. Just go out and try things. She loves her job, but firmly believes in maintaining a healthy balance between work, family and time for playing and adventure. She loves traveling with friends and family—her family's goal being to visit every National Park. They are 57% of the way there. She has visited 34 of the 59 National Parks!
