My Story

I grew up in a very large family. Everything seemed great from the outside. On the inside, there were high levels of dysfunction. I learned from a young age how to hide in plain sight.

I lived in active alcohol addiction for years, which included multiple stints in jail. All the while, I was earning my doctoral degree.

Luckily, I was eventually able to find recovery. My father has 30 years in recovery. He modeled how to live a life of integrity to me in a way that no one else could. Without him, I could very well have been dead by now.

I joined JourneyPure as the Chief Clinical Officer to help those in the same situation.
