Areas of Interest
Child abuse/neglect issues continue to be top priority for me. I am also very interested in International Social Work, primarily in the Caribbean. Currently, I have focused on the Dominican Republic but hope to host future trips to other developing countries throughout the Caribbean. 
Last, I am the faculty advisor for Social Work Plus (student club focusing on social issues on campus and the community).
