She scored an early victory very soon after graduation, landing a job as a coordinator with Tyler's Justice Center for Children. Tyler's is a non-profit organization that works with children and their families during times of crisis. Their mission is to lessen child victims' trauma by providing services to victims of abuse. Her job involves coordinating interviews on behalf of a multi-disciplinary team, tracking cases, and maintaining contact with families for the length of their cases.
