BIO
I have had the opportunity to work with various non-for-profit organizations, hospitals, and federal agencies who deal with victims within society. These non-for-profit organizations include women who have been victims of domestic violence, children who have been displaced from family structure, and sexual abuse. Some hospitals I have worked with are Northeast Georgia Medical Center Greater Baltimore Medical Center, John Hopkins, Northwest Hospital Emergency Service, and Shepard Pratt. Federal agencies include Maryland State Troopers, Baltimore City Police Department, Alphraretta Police Department, Anne Arundel Police Department, and more. My skills are within the fields of self-defense, psychology, education, and public speaking. I have been working with organizations who are handling the complicated issues of victims within our society for over 5 years.
