I am a recent graduate of New York University's MSW program and a licensed LMSW, driven by a deep commitment to mental health advocacy. My academic foundation includes a BA in Psychology and a Minor in Gender and Sexuality Studies from Fairleigh Dickinson University.
My professional journey is focused on providing care as a trauma therapist for young adults within the Latino and LGBTQ+ community. I am passionate about offering compassionate, direct clinical care while also engaging in broader policy initiatives to create meaningful, macro-level change.
Born and raised in the Dominican Republic, I am fluent in Spanish. These experiences, alongside my academic training, have shaped my dedication to fostering positive change and supporting diverse communities. A fun fact about me is that I practice Taekwondo in my free time.
