"I have known Shannon since 2001 and have found her to be one of the most sincere and genuine people I have encountered in my personal and professional lives. Shannon is a stellar human being who is a wonderful advocate for those in need of counseling services, education and resource materials. Her ability to accept and respond to her work environment is indicative of her desire to be successful in whatever role she takes on"
