I am currently the Director of alternative education for ROE33.I have been working in alternative education and behavioral health for over 22 years. A great deal of my background comes from real experiences as a youth and as an educator. I have worked with kids from various settings. I spent time working as a special education teacher, residential treatment specialist, drug, and alcohol rehabilitation specialist, and as a director of alternative programs. I have been training for about 8 years locally and nationally. I love sharing stories about my experiences and try to make things fun and relatable. I firmly believe that you have to spend time in the trenches to remain in touch and humble.
