Storyteller | Facilitator | Gun Violence Survivor at Shooting Survivors: Support & Resources - Rosemead, California, United States
I was shot in the leg in a nightclub in 2006. For so long I struggled alone, not knowing if what I was experiencing was common, and not knowing where to turn for help. It wasn't until I met other survivors and heard their stories that I finally started to heal. I now work one-on-one and in groups with shooting survivors to help them feel safe and freely live their lives again. I also lead workshops and staff trainings in schools and organizations to help communities heal in the devastating aftermath of gun violence. I've created online resources at shootingsurvivors.com to help more survivors through the many struggles of recovering from gun violence.If your life has been impacted by gun violence, you can find community on Facebook in our group "Shooting Survivors: Support & Resources".
