Nothing makes me happier than working with women. Recovery from alcoholism and addiction has been a gift from God. One of the important aspects of my recovery was to change people, places, and things. I hope to facilitate these by fostering an environment at the Hallway of Life Recovery Center, Inc that promotes safety, structure, autonomy, and support. I want to exemplify that recovery from the hopeless state of addiction is possible by working the 12 step program."
