I live in Mecca with my husband, 3 children, and pets. I love attending my kids' events, running my small business, reading, organizing, & traveling. I began my career as an English teacher in 2010 and then transitioned to Guidance in 2015. I pride myself on my compassion for others and devotion to making a difference in the lives of children. As the school counselor, I strive to help each student be successful academically, but also well-rounded socially and emotionally.
Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me! I look forward to helping every student have a successful school year! 💛🖤
I earned my Master of Social Work from Youngstown State University in 2023 and have been serving students at Bristol since 2022. I am dedicated to supporting each student’s social and emotional well-being by providing therapy services to a caseload of students, as well as offering support to any student in need.
I take great pride in watching my students and their families grow and succeed over time. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my two cats, collecting Pokémon cards, baking, and being outdoors.
Please feel free to reach out at any time, I am always here to help!
