I facilitate our techs, learners and stakeholders in any way I can to ensure smooth delivery of high-quality therapy services every day. At home, I am a proud husband, father to a wonderful daughter, a spoiled dog and three very vocal chickens and the undisputed ‘fun uncle’ to two amazing human beings.

She is the sibling and partial caretaker of her nearly 17-year-old brother, who is non-vocal verbal with autism, and through this relationship, she found her calling.

Currently an RBT, of almost two years. I have been involved in the mental health field for years myself and with a family member. Working in this position, early intervention, gives an overwhelmingly positive fulfillment. I was inspired to pursue this career when my nephew was diagnosed with ASD. Once discovering and watching this inspiring work, I had to join the field. I have completed certifications and hope to continue into the world of ASD.

In college, I was a research assistant in a virtual reality lab, a teaching assistant for general psychology, shadowed a child life specialist at Lutheran Children’s Hospital and participated in the National Student Exchange, which is what brought me out to Colorado. I started working at Swann Clinic in October 2022, and have loved every minute of it. I am a firm believer that all emotions should be met with understanding,
empathy and reverence from trusted adults. I have always loved working with kiddos and learning from them! In my free time I enjoy snuggling with my cat Mable, facetiming with my family and cooking new meals for myself.
