Tony is a substance use (AODA) counselor at Wisconsin Community Services in Milwaukee. He holds a bachelor’s degree in human services and a master’s degree in pastoral care, and facilitates trainings on trauma, substance use, peer support, and cultural humility.

His work starts from people’s strengths and from spirituality, and aims to build independence, compassion, and resilience. He brings lived experience, creativity, and connection to people in recovery, and uses therapeutic journaling. He has self-published several journals and a book of poetry.

For Tony, the work is about staying connected to a shared humanity: cultures differ, but people are alike at heart, and a humble, inclusive workforce can answer racism and exclusion with empowerment and cultural humility.
