Favorite Adoption Story: I have so many great adoption stories, but I believe one of my favorites is a recent connection made between a birth parent, her 8-year-old son, and the adoptive parents. During her labor, she did not have anyone to watch her son, so the adoptive parents volunteered and spent the day with him. They learned a lot about him and loved spending time with him and forming a unique bond as they all awaited the birth. After the baby was born, they all spent time together. Because the families live within an hour of each other, they get together every few months. The birth mother shares accomplishments with the adoptive parents, such as getting a job! She has also provided them with pictures of where she is from in Mexico and shared wonderful memories of growing up there and her traditions and culture. I love watching relationships blossom and families coming together for the child.
Education: I graduated with my bachelor's degree in social work, with a minor in psychology, from San Jose State University. I then went on to graduate with my master's degree in social work, from San Jose State University as well.
Responsibilities: Conducting home visits to produce home studies and post adoption reports for international and domestic adoptive families.
