About
I graduated Cum Laude from Colorado Technical University with a B.S. Criminal Justice with a concentration in Human Services. I am currently attending Southern Illinois University Carbondale working on the MSW and CADC certificate. I hope to work for the Department of Veteran Affairs helping fellow veterans with a dual-diagnosis; eventually leading to starting a non-profit for veterans and their families to receive counseling and other resources.
