Advocacy & Non-profit Experience

I believe strongly in advocacy and non-profit work.   My involvement in public advocacy started when I was 13.  I would watch young children at Child & Protection Services while their parents would engage in treatment and counseling.  I have volunteered throughout my life and will instill the same passion for people within my children.
