Hello! My am Kiana Lowe. I am originally from Las Vegas Nevada and am completing my last year of my master’s program at the Graduate School of Social Work at the University of Denver. I completed my undergrad at the University of Northern Arizona where I received my bachelor’s in psychology. During my first year of graduate school, I interned at Family Tree doing supervised visits and then transitioned to Roots of Courage which is a domestic violence shelter.
