Greetings, Huskies! I have been a school counselor for Loudoun County Public Schools since 2000 and am thrilled to be a THS Husky! My degrees include a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from George Mason University and a Master of Arts in Education from Virginia Tech.

I have been blessed with three children (ages 2, 13, and 15) who make parenthood both challenging and rewarding. I enjoy spending time with my family, going on hikes, gardening, cooking, playing with my two Boston Terriers, and listening to music!!!
