About Me

I am a licensed clinical social worker from Long Beach, New York. I attended Cornell University for my undergraduate education where I received a Bachelor's of Science degree in both Human Service Studies and Social Work. I then went on to earn my Master's degree in Social Work from Columbia University.

My experience has been in both the mental health and home care settings. I have especially developed a deep understanding of and appreciation for what people go through when faced with physical challenges and/or as they age. This has also naturally progressed to working with those in the caregiver role as well.
