A little bit about me...
A little bit about me...
Hello everyone! My name Robin Andrews and I was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario but my Newfoundland roots run deep. In 1997, I attended MUN where I completed a Bachelor of Arts degree and then went on to further my studies to complete a Bachelor of Education (Intermediate/Secondary). I then completed a Bachelor of Special Education and eventually my Masters in Counseling Psychology. I have spent over 18 years working as an IRT in both Labrador and here in Gander. I became a part of the GC family in September of 2019 and am excited to begin another school year the Guidance Counselor at GC. Life is hectic but wonderful. On my days off, you can find me hanging out with my family and my dogs.
