I was born and raised in Corrigan, Texas. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, as well as with my two energetic cats; Reese's & Smudge. When I am not at work, you can find me reading a good book, enjoying a nice hiking trail, at sporting events (Aggies, Astros, Patriots), binge watching Gilmore Girls and listening to Taylor Swift, or taking trips to visit new places with my husband and best friends. 

I've been a school counselor for 3 years. I graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University with my Bachelors in English with a focus in Secondary Education and following that, received my Masters from Texas A&M University in Educational Psychology. I have worked in middle school, the school mental health setting, and in education as a ELAR teacher. 

As a school counselor and advocate, I provide support to our students in their academics, career, and personal/social. I believe it is important to provide support in all areas to assist our students in becoming productive and resilient students out in the community. Education is something that I have valued ever since I was a kid because I am a strong believer that it is one thing that cannot be taken away from you. As a school counselor, I want to make sure that every student's mental, physical, educational, and emotional needs are being met so that they can reach their fullest potential and be aware of all the opportunities that wait them.
