I received my Masters Degree from the University of Minnesota in Clinical Social Work in 1987.  I worked at the University of MN for 5 years as the Clinical Director of the Adolescent Day Treatment Program.  From there I worked for Allina as a Therapist for 9 years in an Outpatient Mental Health setting. 

In 2000, I began working in Central High School's Health Start Clinic as a therapist and Clinic Coordinator.  In 2004 I began working at Harding and I have been here ever since.  I also have a private practice in St. Paul. 

I am married with two children.  My son is in college working on his under graduate degree and my daughter is in graduate school.  I live right here in St. Paul and enjoy working and living in the community.
