Michelle holds a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Anderson University and a Master’s degree in Social Work from The Ohio State University. She joined the Brooke’s Place team in 2025 and finds deep meaning in walking alongside people as they navigate grief and loss. Michelle is especially drawn to working with teenagers, young adults, and adults, recognizing that grief can show up in many different ways and often brings complex emotions and challenges. She strives to create a space where clients feel comfortable, supported, and understood as they share their stories and move toward healing at their own pace. Outside of work, Michelle enjoys hiking and exercising outdoors, attending Broadway musicals, and spending time with her husband, two sons, and their Goldendoodle.
