About Me

  • GENDER: Female (She/her/hers)
  • LANGUAGE: English

As the Assistant Director of Development, my purpose is to ensure there is community support that helps maintain and grow the Center's mission and increase brand visibility throughout Central Iowa.

I have more than 10 years of experience in marketing and advertising roles from working with nationally-known brands to locally-owned businesses. I mostly held account management positions and have been able to build relationships with some talented, smart and innovative people throughout the years! My background in website design, content management, email marketing and social media translates well in this role at the Center as I strive towards expanding brand awareness in the community.

My own journey in therapy and other healing modalities started in 2021 after I endured a health scare that became a catalyst event in my life to prioritize what matters most to me. My spirituality and outlook on life was greatly impacted in the most positive way, and I am grateful for what I have learned about myself. It is important to me to help guide others on their own healing paths and I will advocate for therapeutic services all day. To be part of a collaborative environment that shares similar values brings me joy!
