Education
Wilmington University, Social Science in Prevention Science, 2022
The Doctorate of Social Science in Prevention Science is degree with to train students to shift their traditional thinking. Over the course of 2.5 years we completed coursework to approach public health from a preventive perspective on the primary, secondary and tiertiary. All in all looking at how to conduct research using methods and theoretical framework that would best explain the behavior patterns. To close my studies I conducted a qualitative study on the adult population I presented as my dissertation. The study is titled, An Exploratory Study of the Effects of Secondary Traumatic Stress through YouTube Viewing and Recommendations to Mitigate the Effects.
Temple University, Master of Social Work, Children, Family & Youth, 2017
These studies allowed me to learn about the three levels of social work and how I can advocate for improving conditions that affect the community and individuals. I prioritized my learning on clinical social work with an interest to become a well-rounded clinican.
Chestnut Hill College, Bachelor of Science, Human Services and Psychology, 2011
In my studies at CHC it was a beautiful experience where I determined I no longer wanted to diagnose instead be on the grounds engaged with the communities I served. Coursework was exhaustive but set the course for believing I could complete a task of high demand while balancing life.
Work History
My career started early as a home health care aide and advocate for persons with learning challenges until I completed my bachelor’s degree. Quickly, I gained employment in a community mental health and substance use center as a counselor. This work included facilitating groups for substance abuse, treatment planning and looking for measurable success. Shortly after earning my Masters I remained at the same organization however, working as Therapist for persons receiving medicated assisted treatment. I felt compelled to find creative ways to help with community matters. Throughout my work history I have worked predominantly with the adult population with the past 6 years providing therapy to children, teens and families exposed to trauma.
