Many of you know me as a multimedia part of the St. Louis music industry, but did you know that my bread and butter (which you need in this industry) is being a social worker in private practice. I’ve worked as a hospital social worker, a women’s clinic social worker, a school social worker, a community activist and advocate, and now a clinical private practitioner at my own collective, Soul One Wellness Counseling, LLC. I am a proud worker and agent of change and stand in solidarity with all community workers who are widely less valued despite spending countless hours and mental and emotional depletion for underserved populations and people seeking help for their mental health and wellness. As much as I love my roles in music, social work is where my heart lives.
The 2026 theme celebrates social work’s mission to enhance well-being, meet basic needs, and empower vulnerable communities.
