About Me
I absolutely LOVE my job as a school counselor and could not imagine a more wonderful place to work! I attended UC Santa Barbara where I received my bachelor’s degree in Spanish and Sociology, with a minor in Applied Psychology and Education. I then attended CSU Sacramento where I earned my Masters of Science in Counseling with a specialization in School Counseling and my Pupil Personnel Services Credential. I enjoy running, hiking, kayaking, reading, and learning new things.

About Me
Hello! I am so excited to be a part of this amazing Buljan School Counseling Team. I attended Sacramento State for my undergraduate studies in Psychology, and continued with my Master's Degree in Counseling with a specialization in School and Career Counseling. I love working with my students and their families to support with growth and learning in all aspects of their lives. I have 4 children of my own, and my husband and I and our children enjoy the outdoors, time with our dog, movie nights and traveling. I love being a part of this support team for this great community.
