Personal Interests
I’m someone who loves diving into documentaries—there’s something exciting about discovering new stories and perspectives from real life. I’m also an animal lover and find that spending time with furry friends always brings a smile to my day. When I’m not watching films or hanging out with animals, you’ll probably find me at a concert, enjoying the energy and connection that live music creates. These interests keep me curious, grounded, and remind me of the importance of connection—qualities I bring with me into therapy.
