She has clinical experience working in a wide variety of settings and populations.

She is the founder of Make Sound Music Therapy, a private practice that has been serving Northern Colorado since 2010.

When she's not utilizing music to help others, she loves to share her heart through performance. She also loves working with people and helping them develop a passion for music through voice, ukulele, guitar, and piano lessons.

She never misses a chance to be in the mountains with her family, listen to a live concert, or sit alone in her studio, singing and playing guitar.
