I have been working in the mental health field for the past 3 years. I am in this field because I struggled with substance abuse and mental health in my past and have found a passion for helping others. It allows me to give back to those who are struggling and need guidance. I was born in Russia and grew up in Peachtree City, Georgia after moving to the States. I am currently back in school to finish my nursing degree. I enjoy spending time outdoors, fishing and hiking on my days off as well as spending time with family.
