Hello, I’m Jaden (he/him).
I’m a Peer Support Specialist here at Jubilee, where I aim to bring empathy, authenticity, and a bit of humor to supporting others on their healing journeys. Drawing from my own mental health experiences, I strive to help others find connection and healing in community. At my core, I want people to feel less isolated, as I know how lonely mental health challenges can make us feel.

My path to this work began in the Vermont Army National Guard, where I served six active years as a Behavioral Health Specialist and discovered my passion for helping others heal and grow. After my time in the military, I worked in Care Management, supporting Medicaid recipients in accessing healthcare, housing, and essential resources. Those experiences strengthened my belief in whole-person care, addressing the mind, body, and environment together for lasting wellness.

I grew up in Vermont, where I developed a love for nature, animals, and open spaces. I share my life with my partner, stepchild, two dogs, and a cat, all of whom keep me grounded and grateful. Outside of work, I enjoy playing music, spending time with my family, relaxing with a good show or video game, and being outdoors in all kinds of weather, especially the snow, which always reminds me of home.
