Hi! I'm thrilled to be the school counselor at Palisades Elementary! Before becoming a school counselor, I taught in special education and in first grade. I began my school counseling career in 2000 in Council Bluffs, Iowa. In 2005, I began working for the Gretna Schools and have been at Palisades since it opened in 2007.
My husband, Pete, and I have two girls. Together, we love to ride bikes, travel, and enjoy family movie/game nights. In my personal time, I like to do digital scrapbooking, read, and garden.
