My professional life has been consistently focused on serving people in need. After obtaining my bachelors degree from Michigan State University, I initially worked in the Governor's office in Lansing.

As we ebb and flow through life, we connect, disconnect and reconnect over and over again. Our connections to our mind, our body, the people around us, our society and the world are in a fluid state of change. Some internal and external changes may be overwhelming and heavy like a crashing wave. Adjusting to everchanging connections can be difficult at times. As a result, we may start to disconnect and retreat as ways to cope and slowly float away.
