Thanks for visiting the Jones Counseling website! I'm Ms. Andrea your School Counselor. I'm originally from Reno, Nevada and have called San Diego home since 2015. Before dedicating myself to school counseling I spent 7 years as a high school Spanish teacher in both San Diego and Memphis, Tennessee.

I came to San Diego for a master’s degree from the High Tech High Graduate School of Education. There, I taught and researched effective strategies to create meaningful second language acquisition through personalized projects rooted in the local community. 

In 2020, amongst the pandemic, I noticed the huge need for strong School Counseling support for students. I completed a Master's in School Counseling through the University of Southern California.

Outside of my passion of empowering students I love rollerblading, eating, cooking, growing plants, and speaking Spanish!
