Background
I became a homeless youth at age 14. No one ever expected that I would go on to continue my education and I didn’t have a lot of support, either financial or emotional. FSP stepped up for me in a lot of ways and helped support me through my undergrad experience. I’m excited to be able to support students by working with FSP. I am currently a graduate student at Virginia Commonwealth University. I’m getting my masters in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling.
Fun Fact
I’ve been trying to start a fight club for years!
