Meet the School Counselor

Mr. Kale Budgeon

Hello! I'm the school counselor at SHAPA.

I received a Master's of Arts degree in School Counseling from Gonzaga University in 2017 and promptly came to work at SHAPA as the School Counselor. I hold a National Counselor Certification from the National Board for Certified Counselors and maintain specializations in a variety of areas, including; Trauma and Crisis Management, Students with Special Needs, and Career Development.

In my personal life, I enjoy spending time with my family, being outdoors, and traveling. My wife and I spend most summers hiking, geocaching, and camping with our two dogs. I also love reading, playing games, listening to music, and watching good movies.

I can't wait to get to know you!
