“Throughout my journey, I have actively participated in various initiatives aimed at promoting health and wellness, but my work with the Alexis Project at Friends Community Center in Los Angeles has been particularly impactful. In this role, I focused on connecting Trans patients with essential healthcare services, ensuring they received the support they needed. Despite the persistent discrimination and stigma that exist in society, I firmly believe that love, compassion, and understanding are our most powerful tools for fostering a brighter future where everyone can access the healthcare they deserve.
With years in HIV retention and prevention, I am committed to helping our community stay safe and healthy. Currently, I serve as a LEAD PrEP Navigator for the Men's Health Foundation, and these past three years have been incredibly rewarding. I am excited to continue empowering more individuals in their journey toward health and wellness.
As a LEAD PrEP Navigator, my passion lies in equipping my patients with the knowledge and resources they need to make informed decisions about their sexual health. I provide the latest prevention tools and promote safe sexual practices to help reduce the risk of HIV transmission. By ensuring that my patients have the information and support they need, I aim to create pathways to prevention, care, treatment, and trust within our community.”
