I am a Master of Clinical Social Work (MSW) intern with the Center for Chronic Illness. Driven by professional and personal experience, I care deeply about supporting people impacted by chronic illness, rare disease and disability. Before beginning my studies in the University of Washington MSW program, I completed my B.A. in Public Health-Global Health and held roles in emergency medicine and mental health crisis support. I hope to pursue a career in medical social work after completing my MSW studies at the UW.

The Center for Chronic Illness (CCI) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization promoting well-being and decreasing isolation for those impacted by ongoing health challenges through support and education. CCI offers free, peer support groups facilitated by licensed mental health professionals and Master's level mental health interns. CCI's programs are designed to bring people together who live with different types of health challenges and diagnoses, recognizing the shared emotional experience of many who are impacted by chronic illness. Please note, because we are a Seattle-based organization, all support groups are scheduled on Pacific Standard Time (PST).
