About

Driven by diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice practices, I am committed to building communities where each student is valued, engaged, and known. As a school counselor, I am experienced in providing strengths-based counseling, facilitating small group work, and teaching social and emotional curricula. I utilize my counseling and conflict mediation skills to create safe, inclusive spaces where everyone feels they belong.
