Nui is currently a graduate student at National University studying Marriage and Family Therapy. Nui focuses on complex trauma and early childhood abuse. He has spent the last year working with children diagnosed with autism and enjoys working with complex behavioral challenges.

 

He is a passionate martial artist, sculptor, and avid hiker. He finds harmony in the discipline of martial arts, the creativity of sculpting, and the serenity of exploring nature through hiking trails. These passions have helped him approach problems from a variety of angles and he meets individuals where they are in life. His work in the tech sector has helped him understand how to find breakdowns in systems and find appropriate solutions for them. These skills have transferred to working with families and helping the "breakdowns" within family systems.
