She has been with the Center for Childhood Resilience since 2009, and has more than 15 years of experience in community and school mental health.

Most recently, she co-authored the resource book, Creating Healing School Communities: School-Based Interventions for Students Exposed to Trauma which is one in a series aimed at supporting clinicians who are working in schools and communities.
