Age: 38

Title: Program manager, NAMI Iowa

What are your goals in your role at your company?

Expand grassroots mental health programing across the state of Iowa through state-run initiatives and empowerment of local affiliates. Bringing NAMI programing to all 99 counties (only 45 more to go!) to provide hope and help to those living with or supporting a loved one with a mental illness.

What’s your biggest passion, and why?

Actualizing! Dreaming a dream, creating a goal and making it a reality. Creating solutions to real-world problems. I love to break down complicated ideas, systems and goals into simpler, more achievable, more understandable parts.
