ICJ Staff

Bio

I developed an affection for the forensic population at my first job out of graduate school.  I graduated from Alvernia University with a Master’s in Community Counseling and I became a Program Counselor at Community Education Centers.   I worked with men who had violated parole.  While working with the men who had violated parole I became interested in criminal justice and that led me to pursue a Master’s in Criminal Justice at St. Joseph’s University.  My desire was to assist and support individuals with needs.  In the course of my employment journey, I have been a substance abuse counselor, mental health counselor, targeted case manager, juvenile detention counselor and held various management positions but I always keep my focus on assisting and supporting individuals.  I feel my purpose is being fulfilled at ICJ.
