I have over 20 years of experience working in the field. I am a graduate from Eastern New Mexico University and received my degree in Social Work. I have worked with persons of all ages and diversity and continue to enjoy working with so many amazing individuals. I have knowledge working with SSA, elder services, child services, social services, Medicare, Medicaid, disability, veterans and many other programs in NM. I enjoy being a part of Visions Case Management and providing services to so many wonderful individuals who receive DDW services across the state.
I am native to northern New Mexico and cannot see myself living anywhere else as NM has so many wonderful things to do and experience. I come from a large family and enjoy so many of New Mexico’s wonderful traditions, foods and culture. New Mexico’s diversity and beauty is what I enjoy the most. I love being outdoors and spending time with my family. In my spare time, I love hiking, fishing and taking pictures of our beautiful state. I enjoy meeting new people and being introduced to different cultures and foods, so I take the opportunity to try new things.

I have been working in social services for 12 years. I joined Visions in 2025 and am happy to be part of this team! I have a BA in Art Therapy and graduated from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, WA. I have worked with both youth and adult populations in education and therapeutic settings throughout my career. With Visions I am the DD Waiver Regional Lead serving the northeast region of the state. Originally from the northern Illinois area, I have lived in New Mexico for 7 years. I lived in Jemez Springs and now Albuquerque, and have a deep fondness for this state and the people living here. I enjoy being outdoors and in the mountains hiking, climbing... Moving is important for me. I teach yoga, and have been practicing close to 20 years. I enjoy playing guitar and making music with others. Tea, biking, dancing, reading, and a good belly laugh are simple things I enjoy.

I joined the Visions team in May 2018 but have been in the field for about 7 years in different roles prior to this position. Most of my background is in the social services sector. I’ve worked in different roles in the DD waiver and did case management for troubled youth for some time. I was born in California and moved to Santa Fe New Mexico with my family when I was 3, I have been here since then. I have served different regions of New Mexico along my years of experience; in my previous job, half my caseload resided in Espanola and in Rio Arriba county. In my current position with Visions, I serve in Santa Fe and Albuquerque. I’m extremely passionate about my job and enjoy what I do very much! I have two boys that keep me extremely busy when I’m not working. All the things I enjoy doing outside of work revolve around them. Some of my favorite things to do with my children include road trips, camping, and being involved in their school events. During my free and alone time, I enjoy hiking and love a spa day when I can get away with one!

April Maestas, Case Manager
April@visionsnm.com
I have been with Visions Case Management for almost 5 months. Before I became a Case Manager, I worked for another agency in the DD waiver field. I have an abundance of background experience in the following roles/departments: Direct Care Staff, Quality Assurance, Human Rights Committee Coordinator, House Manager, CCSI Manager with 30 Clients and 6 Staff.
I wanted to become a case manager and utilize my skills that I have learned throughout my years of experience in the field. After a year of asking many questions and getting answers from other Case Managers, I finally decided to fix my resume and apply for a job with a case management agency. I am so grateful to Visions for giving me the opportunity to become a Case Manager and utilize those skills. I enjoy the outdoors and going to our family Cabin. I enjoy hunting, fishing, and making memories with my husband and grandkids. This job has allowed me to do all the wonderful things that I enjoy; I have met so many new families and have had the opportunity to help them with the things they need to thrive. Visions is a wonderful place to work, as the other Case Managers, admin and Supervisors are so helpful and kind. I work hard and try to do the best I can, as I am still learning something new every day.

Martha Revilla, Case Manager
Martha@visionsnm.com
I have been working as an independent contractor in the Developmental Disabilities Waiver program for more than three years. I joined the Visions Team as a Case Manager in 2022. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Multi-Disciplinary studies from the University of Texas at El Paso with areas of concentration in Human Behaviors and Interactions as well as Spanish Literature. This degree granted me flexibility in my interpersonal relations skills. I have been providing services in every region of New Mexico where I am needed but I mainly oversee the Southeastern region serving the Lea, Chaves, and Lincoln counties of New Mexico. I have more than 20 years of experience in the health care industry working with individuals with special needs in the context of a medical office. I administratively led a medical practice that worked with patients with down syndrome and autism. I am a native Spanish speaker, and this allows me to communicate effectively with individuals that may not be fluent in the English language. It is always my goal to go above and beyond in support of my clients. I always advocate for their best interests, and I like taking the time to personally get to know each client and their family, to learn about their goals, and their aspirations. I pride myself in providing excellent customer care to the persons entrusted to me under the DD Waiver program. When I am not working, I love spending time with my beautiful family and our 3 dogs. I also enjoy traveling and spending time with friends watching sunsets, playing outdoor sports, cooking up barbeques, bowling, and playing dominoes.
I look forward to the privilege of serving you!

I have been with Visions since 2023 and in the field working specifically with people with intellectual disabilities since 2014. I have worked as a direct care staff in supported living and ICF homes. I was promoted to Program Manager in Supported Living, then QIDP Asst. in ICF where I managed homes and the active therapy provided to residents. I then moved to CA in 2018 and worked in Supported Living managing homes across the East Bay. I discovered the role of a case manager in CA and worked as one for a few years during Covid. I felt I found my place in the field as a case manager. In 2023, I moved back to Albuquerque and started working with Visions Case Management. It's been a great agency to represent and the support is amazing. I have learned a great amount in this position and plan to stay in the field.

My name is Tracy Reeves and I joined Visions Case Management in 2024. I have a son who is autistic, so I love to support parents, children and adults to get the services they need to live life to the fullest. Before doing case management, I was living in Peru as a missionary and one of my main duties was to help individuals find proper medical care. My son grew up in Peru, so I became familiar with the medical community as I sought resources for him. When I am not working, you will find me at the gym. I enjoy being active and am working toward the goal of completing the Camino de Santiago in Spain.

A career so fulfilling and nice I would gladly do it twice! I was born and raised in the valley of Albuquerque. I grew up in the local soccer community and still play to this day. I enjoy assisting in the Special Olympics and attending Special Needs sporting events year round. I take pride growing up in New Mexico and I volunteer and try to give back to the Veteran community which proudly served our Nation. My passion will always be serving God and all the people that make up our amazing and unique community.

Hello, My name is Roxana Lazaro. I graduated from New Mexico Highlands University in 2021 with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology (Minor is Sociology). I have various years of office management experience in a mental health setting, and also have business administration experience as a mid-level manager. I have been in New Mexico for approximately eight years; I have previously traveled to/lived in: Socorro, Las Vegas, and other points within this state. I arrived in Albuquerque at the precipice of the 2020 COVID-19 global pandemic. I enjoy listening to music, bodily exercise/movement, the arts, and the sciences. I am bilingual in Spanish/English. My work with the New Mexico Disability Waivers has led me to a better understanding of the coordination efforts present throughout the state as it continues to mobilize to protect those that may not be able to speak for themselves as a result of an intellectual or developmental disability.

I’m so excited to be working for Visions Case Management and Consulting. I grew up in western New York in a very small town where my family is from. My great grandmother even taught in a one room schoolhouse there. I received my masters degree from Ithaca College in Occupational Therapy in New York. I have lived all along the east and Gulf Coast. I landed in New Mexico almost four years ago and I just love it here. I am excited to support programs that allow people with disabilities to participate in life and contribute towards their community. As an occupational therapist I believe that all people should have access to services that allow them to live life to the fullest. I love to watch others grow to their best potential. When I’m not working, I’m helping my partner with her three kids—one of whom has special needs—as well as tinkering around the house. I also enjoy looking for ways to enrich my community and spend time outdoors.

I have lived in Santa Fe for over 25 years. When I am not working I am usually spending time with my family. My two boys keep me busy with their activities and sports. I love watching them play baseball, spending time outdoors and with friends.

My background includes 10 years in Human Resources and 6 years in Unemployment Benefits. I have my bachelor’s degree from the University of New Mexico in Organizational Learning.

Hi, I’m Elena and I am very proud to be part of Visions as a Consultant for the Mi Via Waiver. Carolane McNees, the founder of Visions Case Management, was my daughter’s first case manager and I had the pleasure of being with Visions when it first began. I was born and raised in Santa Fe, got married and moved to San Bernardino, California where my husband was stationed in the Armed Forces, where I gave birth to my son who has married and given me 6 beautiful grandchildren. Later, I moved to Salt Lake City, Utah where I gave birth to my daughter who was born with multiple disabilities. We decided to move back to Santa Fe to be close to family and have lived here for the past 37 years. My experience comes from being a mom and wearing many the many hats that need to be worn while being the strongest advocate possible, going through the many challenges that only those who walk or have walked in the shoes can truly understand what it’s like day to day. The tremendous Love, Joy and Compassion learned from taking care of a person with special needs is remarkably unique and so special. I have been a caregiver, staff, transporter, and trainer for many individuals with special needs for 39 years. After my daughter’s passing 9 years ago I began my new-found journey in honor of her memory. I became a Coordinator for New Pathways for 2 years, then moved over to Santa Lucia where I enjoyed working for 7 years until I was offered a position to be a Consultant with UNM and worked for 1 ½ years. I have been with Visions since May of 2017, and I am honored to be part of a wonderful team at Visions and love working with all of the families who have welcomed me into their lives. When I am not working I spend a great deal of time at the grandkids’ basketball games, fishing, gardening, and going for nice scenic drives.

I have been on the Visions team as a Mi Via Waiver Consultant since 2023. This was also my first experience working with Mi Via. I was a DD Waiver Case Manager in Indiana for almost 7 years and a Mental Health Life Skills Coach for 3 years after that. I am an advocate for all. I am originally from Fort Wayne, IN and moved to Albuquerque in November of 2019. I currently serve the counties of Bernalillo, Valencia, San Juan, and Catron. When I am not hard at work, I enjoy traveling, hiking, visiting with friends and family across the country, and going to as many concerts as possible.

Hello! I have been with Visions since May of 2020. I am honored to have the opportunity to work with individuals and families throughout New Mexico. My educational background is in healthcare; I earned my Masters in Human Resource and Organizational Management.
I am a native New Mexican and love our beautiful state. I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my beautiful grandchildren. I also enjoy traveling and exploring new places.
The field of disability is personal to me. I have four children, two of whom were born with disabilities. From the time that my children were born, I learned that a parent’s voice is the most important voice for their child in advocating for them. I, like so many, faced numerous challenges with multiple systems and I had to learn fast! I conquered every obstacle I could and learned from those that I could not change. I have been working in the field of disability for over 30 years as an advocate, liaison, and trainer for both state and federal programs. I also have worked in hospice. I love being in a position where I can connect with others, listen, share ideas and use my experiences and expertise. I hope that I can help empower families with knowledge and confidence to make choices that are best for them with the hopes that individuals can one day advocate for themselves.
I look forward to meeting the families that the Supports Waiver serves throughout the state.

I have worked with the DD waiver since 2005. Originally, my intention was to become a nurse, but I fell in love with my clients and their families so was led to social work and have never looked back. I obtained my LMSW in 2009. Since that time, I have worked in residential settings, as a social worker for children in CYFD custody, program manager on the DD waiver, a home study practitioner and now as a Mi Via Consultant. I have been with Visions for a few months but have been a Mi Via Consultant for 3 years. I love getting to know my participants and helping them achieve their optimal goals. I live in Albuquerque with my husband, daughter and our spoiled Schnauzer. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my daughter, traveling, gardening and helping my husband renovate our home. I feel honored to be working in a field with so many wonderful individuals.

I have been a Mi Via Consultant since 2014, and because I have my own special needs son I've been "working" in the field for 17 years. I received my Bachelors degree in Biology from Creighton University, and I studied American Sign Language at UNM after I learned my son was deaf. Prior to becoming a Mi Via Consultant, I was part of a group of parents and educators that founded a charter school in Albuquerque in 2010 - The Albuquerque Sign Language Academy. The school serves deaf, hard of hearing, and hearing children, making it the first of its kind in New Mexico. I could not be more proud of the staff and the great work that happens there everyday. I continue to serve as the Board Chair, and I consider myself very lucky to be working with the staff, students, and their families. My transition to become a Mi Via Consultant was a natural one because of my son and my own personal Mi Via experience - and I had a fantastic mentor. I truly love working with the families I serve, and I feel honored that they allow me to be a part of their lives. When I am not working, I am generally running my three children around - my oldest boy and boy/girl twins. I enjoy traveling, camping, movies, spending time with family and friends, and I love a good laugh!

For the last 17 years, I’ve been living in the Albuquerque/Rio Rancho area.
I’m married and have three amazing kids—two daughters and a son. In my free time, I love spending time outdoors with my family, going to church, and traveling. I also enjoy working out in my home gym, reading, especially fun books to my kids, and camping whenever I get the chance.

I have been a Mi Via Waiver consultant since 2014 and have truly enjoyed this role. I feel honored to work with the families I serve and have learned so much from them. I currently serve the Albuquerque Metro area.
I was drawn to the field of social work early on in my career. After working in the social services field in various capacities since 2002, I obtained my masters degree in social work from New Mexico State University in 2012. However, I spent my undergrad years at UNM and am a Lobo at heart!! Music has always been a big part of my life and was also one of my undergraduate majors.
Albuquerque has always been my home! I am married and have two children, a daughter and a son. My family and I enjoy staying active and love to bike and travel together. We are involved in our church and spend a lot of time with our extended family. (We have lots in the area and there’s always some sort of gathering happening!) I also love a good mystery novel, my husband’s cooking, and coffee.

In November of 2017, I had the pleasure of joining the Visions Case Management team as a Support Broker. My professional and personal experience goes back many years. Since 2001, I have had the honor of working with many of New Mexico's best nonprofit organizations and with various vulnerable populations. I have enjoyed serving individuals who have developmental disabilities, severe mental illness, struggles with homelessness, and children with profound medical needs. Along with my professional experience, I have 19 years of personal experience given to me by my son who had profound developmental disabilities and was medically fragile. My son passed away in 2008 at the age of 19 years old. The experience my son provided me has given me the ability to view the world through eyes that choose to see love and a heart that feels compassion. After my son's passing, I pursued my education and obtained a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice. I am a native New Mexican and live in Albuquerque where I enjoy being active in my church community, spending time with my family, enjoying nature, reading, and most recently trying my hands at arts and crafts. I currently serve members in Central, Eastern and Southern New Mexico and the Albuquerque area. I look forward to meeting you!

I began my healthcare career as a Licensed Nursing Assistant in 2012, gaining extensive hands-on experience in direct patient care across diverse settings, including hospitals, rehabilitation centers, hospice care, mental health, labor and delivery, oncology, and as a Respite Provider. I’ve also worked as a health coach alongside primary care providers and supported individuals experiencing suicidal ideation, serious mental illness (SMI), and intellectual disabilities. I remain an active Licensed Nursing Assistant and continue to provide direct patient care, which allows me to stay closely connected to the individuals and communities I serve.
My background also includes care coordination, where I developed a strong understanding of the challenges faced by our most vulnerable populations and worked to connect them with the care and resources they need most.
Throughout my career, I have held various administrative and leadership roles that strengthened my communication, team management, and problem-solving skills. These experiences shaped my ability to lead with empathy, maintain operational excellence, and foster collaboration across departments.
I am passionate about leveraging technology to enhance processes, support data-driven decision-making, and elevate the quality of care coordination services we provide. Whether managing systems, guiding teams, or developing innovative solutions, my goal is to create meaningful and lasting impact for both clients and staff.
Originally I'm from Guadalajara, Mexico, I relocated from Arizona to New Mexico in February 2025 with my wife of 16 years and our two children. Outside of work, I find balance and inspiration in nature whether I’m creating art, gardening, helping others, or caring for our farm animals.
