Nice to meet you

I work with adults, couples, and marriages facing suicide and crisis, human trafficking, substance use disorders, and sexual addiction. I have served educators, military members and veterans, first responders, and individuals living on the streets throughout Baltimore City and the DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia areas. I am a retired Army paratrooper, former tree climber and business owner, and educator in the public school system, including at a level-5 school. Two core values that guide my work are respect and dignity.
