I am Texas-born, raised, and educated. I have a Bachelor's in Psychology from Texas Wesleyan University, a Master's in Criminal Justice from Texas Christian University, and I am pursuing a Master's in Sociology from the University of North Texas.
I am a Dean's List Recipient and member of the Honor Society Psi Chi
I believe in constantly pursuing education. That has led to certificates in The Opioid Crisis in America from Harvard University and Animal Ethics from Kyoto University.
In my undergraduate studies, I developed a program with a student organization to assist in Feeding The Homeless near campus. After years of researching the extreme food insecurity facing those in Fort Worth and North Texas, I launched the non-profit Another Hand to combat hunger here in Texas. Since founded, Another Hand has fed thousands in Weatherford, Waco, Granbury, and the DFW metroplex.
