Hello, all!  This is my 9th year in education and my 2nd year as a School Counselor.  My previous years were spent as a Special Education teacher.  I also own a competive cheer gym so much of my time after school is spent coaching cheerleading.  I have 3 children, a wonderful and supporting husband, and a fur baby.  My spare time is spent with family and friends, traveling for cheer, soccer, and frequent beach trips.   

As a School Counselor, serving students through direct and indirect supports with academic, social/emotional, and career opportunities is ongoing during the school year.  Getting to know students and their individual needs is one of many highlights of this job.  Connecting students with resources and chances to navigate ways to be successful during and beyond high school is vital to their development.  I look forward to working with you and your student!
