Speaking
March 2024. My alma mater asked me to share a bit about my journey and the importance and impact of the social work value of integrity. It was an honor to be considered for this opportunity. Happy to have been able to share. Hopeful that it’s helpful.
In February 2022, I was a guest on The Snazzy Lifestyle podcast, where I spoke about therapy for Black and Brown folks. I’m on around the 16-minute mark.
Something like an origin story. A young me. In 2013, I was granted the honor of giving the graduation speech at my social work school graduation. I’ve been striving to follow that advice I gave my classmates:
Keep learning - about myself and people
Be great - good isn’t good enough
Believe in and fight for social justice
