In my professional and personal life, I am committed to reducing the suffering of others due to racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, anti-semitism, xenophobia, ageism, ableism, Islamophobia, and other forms of oppression. I am committed to doing social justice work to promote the wellness of all and uplift the voices and experiences of marginalized communities. I approach situations with humility and curiosity and fully acknowledge my own biases in any given situation based upon my experiences and the privileges associated with my social position.  ​
