On recovery

"One of the biggest issues in addiction is that people use substances to cope. People are hurting emotionally. They feel hopeless, and they think that using substances is their best solution. The best part about my job is seeing individuals learn different ways to cope without substance use, and seeing the hope return to their eyes. I get to see those same individuals, who were once hopeless, finally feel empowered. There's nothing more rewarding than that."
