Get To Know The Counseling Team

It's such an honor to be part of the NMS community this year. This is my fifth year at NMS and seventh year as a school counselor. I'm truly excited to be continuing my journey to help support students. with their academic and social-emotional needs. This year I will be working directly with students with last names A-P and their families. I'll also be the coordinator of COST and a WEB Advisor. I'm originally from Southern California and moved up north to pursue my career. During my free time I enjoy reading, watching sports/shows/movies, and trying out new food places. 

I have been a school counselor for seven years now and this will be my fifth here at Newark Middle School. This year, I work with students with the last names starting with letters Q-Z & Puente, supporting them with their academic and social-emotional needs. I am one of the WEB Advisors and a co-site coordinator of TUPE (Tobacco Use Prevention Education). As a local of the Tri-City area, I am happy to serve and give back to part of the community where I grew up. During my free time, I like to read, write, and catch up on my favorite shows and movies.
