About Me
About Me
Hi, I'm the founder of Choose You University™.
I am a Certified Life Coach, Behavior Technician, and Direct Support Professional, and I currently work with adults with developmental disabilities. I am also continuing my education as a Psychology student, expanding my understanding of human behavior, personal growth, motivation, and the ways our thoughts, habits, and actions can influence our lives.
But beyond my professional roles and education, I am someone who understands what it feels like to want more for your life—and to realize that real change requires more than simply wanting it.
I am enthusiastic, compassionate, ambitious, and deeply empathetic. I have always had a heart for helping others recognize their potential, work through challenges, and take meaningful steps toward the life they want to create.
At the same time, I learned an important lesson in my own journey:
Before I could consistently help others move forward, I also had to learn how to choose myself.
How Choose You University Began
Choose You University™ was born from my own personal growth journey.
The principles inside The 90-Day Accountability Experience are not just ideas I gathered and placed into a journal. They are principles I have personally worked to apply in my own life—and principles I continue to use today.
I have learned the importance of:
- Being honest with myself
- Identifying patterns that no longer serve me
- Setting meaningful goals
- Creating structure and consistency
- Holding myself accountable
- Recognizing when I am making excuses
- Giving myself grace without allowing myself to give up
- Reflecting on where I have been
- Staying connected to the person I am becoming
- Resetting instead of believing I have failed
Like many people, I have experienced moments where I knew what I wanted but needed greater structure, consistency, and accountability to help me move forward.
That is why I created the framework behind Choose You University.
I wanted to create more than a journal filled with blank pages.
I wanted to create an experience.
A space where people could reflect on their past, become honest about their present, and intentionally create a plan for their future.
A space that could be challenging enough to encourage real accountability, while still offering encouragement, grace, and room to grow.
I Am Still a Student of My Own Life
One of the most important things I want people to understand is that I am still using these principles myself.
I am not presenting myself as someone who has figured everything out.
I am still growing.
I am still learning.
I am still setting goals, checking in with myself, identifying areas where I can improve, and choosing to reset when life does not go according to plan.
That is why I call this Choose You University™.
Because personal growth is not a class you take once and complete forever.
We are continually learning ourselves.
We are continually being challenged.
We are continually given opportunities to choose differently.
And sometimes, choosing yourself means starting again.
My Mission
My mission is to encourage and support individuals as they become more intentional about their lives.
Through my background in life coaching, behavioral support, direct support, and my continued studies in psychology, I have developed a deep appreciation for the individuality of each person's journey.
There is no one-size-fits-all path to growth.
That is why Choose You University™ was designed to be personal.
Your goals are personal.
Your challenges are personal.
Your habits are personal.
Your journey is personal.
This experience is designed to meet you where you are while challenging you to take responsibility for where you want to go.
Welcome to Choose You University™
Here, you are not expected to be perfect.
You are encouraged to be honest.

Because growth begins with a decision.
And sometimes, the most powerful decision you can make is:
