I am a U.S. Army combat veteran. I graduated in 2022 from Daemen University with a B.A. in Social Work. I am currently working on my graduate degree in the same field. I became a social worker because I wanted to be the role model and mentor that I never had when I was growing up. Prior to my employment at Compeer, I was an intern in the school based mentoring program. I look forward to continuing to grow the current relationships I have as well as creating new ones within the school based mentoring program. 

 
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my wife and my dog. I am a self-taught musician who plays drums and guitar. I believe that music is especially important in life because music can change someone’s mood, get them excited, or make them calm and relaxed. Music also allows people to feel most or possibly all emotions that we experience in our lives. So, with a little positivity and a lot of music, the possibilities are endless.
