Every Story Matters
“I had a really influential teacher in high school. When I told her I was grateful for her support, she encouraged me to show it by helping someone else. She lead me to the guidance counselor’s office, who signed me up to volunteer in the middle school classroom for children with behavioral challenges. The challenge of understanding their perspectives and trying to support them in being successful at school really resonated with me. I knew from that moment on I wanted to make a career out of helping children who feel marginalized or misunderstood.”
“Psychogenic non-epileptic events (PNEE) is a diagnosis that has been stigmatized and forgotten by the medical community for a long time, with little advancements in patient care. It’s rewarding to help a patient and their family feel heard, validated and understood while giving them hope that they can get better.”
“Although life in the NICU comes with many emotional challenges, being able to observe each baby, discovering their unique temperament, and responding to their individual needs - the challenge is well worth it. I get to watch newborns heal and parents gain this confidence to be healthy guides for their children.”
