I hold professional licensure as a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC) and have a diverse background in education, tutoring, and support services. My academic experience includes working as a college English tutor for two years, where I provided one-on-one and small group tutoring to help students strengthen their writing, reading comprehension, and study skills.
In addition to academic tutoring, I worked at an EIDBI clinic supporting individuals with ASD and ADHD, where I gained experience adapting teaching strategies to meet unique learning and behavioral needs. This role required patience, creativity, and individualized approaches to skill-building.
Beyond academics and clinical support, I bring 15 years of experience as a competitive softball player, which has shaped my ability to mentor and coach others in discipline, teamwork, and resilience.
I also have extensive professional experience leading substance use disorder (SUD) groups as a counselor, where I teach adults through structured curricula, PowerPoint visuals, discussion, and interactive reflection activities. I have facilitated both one-on-one sessions and large telehealth groups (up to 16 participants), working primarily with adults in recovery.
Overall, my teaching style is flexible, interactive, and supportive, grounded in helping learners achieve their goals whether in academics, skill development, or personal growth.
