Eli earned his bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of North Carolina Wilmington. He is currently pursuing his Master of Social Work at UNC, which placed him at Bright Path for his specialization practicum.

Eli enjoys working at Bright Path because of its deeply holistic approach to patient care. He’s continually inspired by the way each part of the multidisciplinary team is oriented toward positive outcomes and meaningful therapeutic experiences for teens.

He also appreciates Bright Path’s commitment to training emerging clinicians, creating an environment where client safety and valuable learning opportunities exist side‑by‑side.

Eli’s professional goal is to earn his LCSW and work primarily with adolescent and college‑aged boys. He is passionate about creating safe, supportive spaces where young people can develop a strong sense of self and build lives that align with their values.
