Psychology

I am a licensed psychologist and board-certified behavior analyst with specialized training in developmental and neuropsychological assessment. Currently, I work at Psychology Specialists of Utah, where I focus on evaluating and supporting children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, and other neurodevelopmental conditions. I was born and raised in Utah and love being surrounded by mountains, which offer both inspiration and balance in my personal and professional life. My professional goal is to deepen my expertise in interdisciplinary care, especially for children with complex needs, and to contribute to more equitable, family-centered service systems.

In my free time, I enjoy going to sporting events (especially soccer), traveling, gardening, and spending time with my family and dogs. I am excited to participate in URLEND because I value collaborative learning and am eager to build connections with professionals across disciplines. I’m particularly interested in how systems-level thinking and leadership training can enhance the quality of services for underserved children and families.
