Destiny,

Destiny says that one of the best parts about being a sleep coordinator is the continuous learning about sleep science. Staying updated with new findings and techniques can be incredibly rewarding and helps us provide better care and advice to those seeking to improve their sleep health. For her, it’s always fulfilling to guide individuals and see the positive impact on their overall well-being.
A Las Vegas native, Destiny likes to spend her time away from the office having fun with her two younger siblings, playing volleyball, making art/T-shirts, and crocheting.
