This is my 4th year at Frontier Valley. I love my job and I love getting to know our FVE Buffaloes and their families. I have 3 boys and 2 dogs, Andie and Bernie. On the weekend you'll find me on a hike, gardening, or on the soccer field cheering on my boys.
I love being outside, exploring new places, reading, baking, playing with Andie, and drinking coffee! I grew up in Arizona and have lived in many other places, including California, Hawaii, Kansas, Tennesse, and now Colorado. I was a teacher before I went back to get my Master's in school counseling in 2017. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a Nationally Board Certified Counselor (NBCC), and I am working to become a Registered Play Therapist (RPT).Â
We work with students at Frontier Valley through classroom lessons, small groups, and individual counseling. We also help connect families to community resources and counseling services. Some of our favorite topics to teach students include mindfulness, growth mindset, and career exploration.
