About Edward
I am a 57-year-old male with a wealth of life experience. I am a graduate of Purchase College in New York, and have worked for some of the top music entertainment and book publishing companies in the world as a graphic designer. I am also a world-traveled musician with extensive touring experience. In the last few years, I have turned to peer work as a new direction, though I continue to make art and music. I hold certifications as a peer specialist as well as a yoga and meditation instructor.
My Recovery Story
10 years ago, I had my first psychotic ‘break’, leading to 5 psychiatric hospitalizations. Medication and a PROS program for assistance with getting my life back on track.
My Motivation To Help
I have been a ‘mentor’ to many people over the course of my life and find using my lived experience to be life-affirming and wish to share it with as many as possible.
