Hi, I’m Avril! A Chicago native with 8 years of experience in mental health administration and business development, and a big heart for helping people and communities thrive. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to support a variety of meaningful projects focused on uplifting Latinx and communities of color, with a special passion for making mental health care more accessible, inclusive, and culturally responsive. I’ve always believed that taking care of our communities starts with showing up for one another, and that healing doesn't only happen in the therapy room. It also happens behind the scenes, through the systems we build, the people we support, and the welcoming spaces we create. As Operations Manager at Mindfully at Peace, I’m excited to bring that same heart into my work, embracing a holistic, compassionate, and person-centered approach that honors the whole person. Because even in administration, there's room for a little love, a lot of intention, and meaningful healing.
