I am excited to join the amazing Ridgeview community as your new 8th grade counselor! I am entering into my 23rd year as an educator, with 13 years as a teacher and 10 years as a school counselor. I received my Bachelor of Arts from Texas A&M University and my Masters of Education in School Counseling from Texas State University.
My husband, Joel, and I have two wonderful children. My son, Caleb, is in the School of Music at The University of North Texas and my daughter, Kendall, is a Junior at Cedar Park High School. When I'm not at school, I am busy cheering on my daughter at her dance events and a busy Booster Club Board Member for her high school dance team.
I look forward to getting to know you and assisting in anyway I can. Have a great school year!

As a former Ridgeview Panther-- I am excited to be at Ridgeview and continuing my journey as a school counselor helping all students with issues that may be affecting their academics, career, and personal/social interaction. This is my nineth year in education and my second year at Ridgeview Middle School.
I attended Henderson State University for my Bachelors in Psychology and Grand Canyon University for my Masters in Counseling. When I am not at work you can find me spending time with husband and 2 kiddos.

I am so excited to be part of this school and this community!!! I am starting year 15 in education. This will be my 6th year as a counselor and the rest I spent as a 2nd/3rd grade Dual Language teacher. I received my Bachelor degree from St. Edward's University and my Masters degree from Lamar University.
Currently, I live with my husband, my two boys and our cat Chikis. When not at school you can find me at the gym, at the movie theater or in a coffee shop.
I enjoy helping students voice any concerns and offer a safe space for them to fully express themselves. I am here to support and inspire young minds!
I look forward to a wonderful year with you!!!! Let's go Panthers!!!!
We loop with our students so you will have the same counselor through all of middle school!
