      I am currently an MSW Student at the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College. My anticipated graduation date is May 2024, and I have a concentration in Gender and Sexuality. Upon my graduation, I am interested in pursuing a career in psychotherapy, with a focus on sex and relationship therapy. I am particularly called to work with populations traditionally excluded from these spaces; my work is affirming for members of queer, kinky, nonmonogamous and/or sex worker communities.
