Case Manager - Seattle Team

Focused on Quality of Life & Meaningful Engagement

I have dedicated my work in social services to partnering with children, teens, and older adults across a variety of settings. My approach is rooted in compassion and innovation, with a strong focus on self-empowerment and quality of life, especially for individuals navigating disability, recovery, or long-term care needs.

I strive to support each person in engaging in meaningful activities, self-care and building community to promote independence, dignity, and personal growth—no matter their stage of life or level of ability. I strive to ensure that each person I support can thrive in their own unique way.
