About Me
Chief Innovation Officer
I am the Chief Innovation Officer at Straight Up Care and a person with lived experience with depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. I am trained/educated as a professional counselor and hoping to become a peer specialist soon. My personal mission is to eliminate barriers and cultivate opportunities for others to achieve their self-defined success, meaning, and fulfillment - and that's what my role is at Straight Up Care!
