Throughout my extensive military and civilian experiences, I have found that one principle continues to stand true time and time again: “Audacity is the key to victory in battle.” I am a retired Army Noncommissioned Officer. During my military service, I participated in five combat and operational deployments. Now, working as a Mental Health Therapist, I find that my unique blend of experiences and training have led me to be a successful mentor, advocate, and counselor to an underserved population in our country – my fellow Veterans. Since my time working as a Mental Health Therapist and Advisor with the Colorado 4th Judicial District Veteran Trauma Court, I have established myself as a Veteran Mental Health Thought Leader. On a daily basis, in person and through my writing, I use my experiences and expertise to bring awareness to Veteran mental health, and act as a voice on behalf of my fellow brothers and sisters in arms. I truly believe that the numerous difficulties that some Veterans experience, including unemployment, homelessness, and transitioning difficulties, are all related to their mental health in some form or fashion. It is my mission to ensure Veteran mental health does not go unnoticed in our country. I am interested in any conversation with others that will support a Veteran on the path to finding their wellbeing, big or small.
