Hello and welcome! I am a first year Doctoral Student in Clinical Psychology at the University of Denver through the Graduate School of Professional Psychology. I am currently completing my first year of internship under the supervision of Dr. Lila Kimel. I obtained my Bachelor of Science in Psychology at the University of Texas at El Paso in June of 2017. I then obtained her Master of Arts in Forensic Psychology from the University Of Denver in June of 2019. During that program, I worked at the Problem-Solving courts, an alternative sentencing program for individuals with mental health and substance abuse diagnosis. I also worked at the Jefferson County detention facility doing biopsychosocial assessments with individuals to assess for mental health and refer to appropriate services within the facility. I also spent a year working as a clinical case manager at a community health center working with individuals with an HIV diagnosis. I assisted patients with setting up appointments and filling out paperwork to receive aid for medications. I also completed treatment plan. I worked at the Jefferson County jail for two years doing mental health evaluations and risk assessments with individuals in the facility. I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge of assessments and evaluations as well as learning to work with younger children and caregivers. During my time off, I enjoy spending time with friends, trips to El Paso to visit family, reading, cooking, and dancing.
