I'm excited to be a Cardinal! My journey in education began in New York City where I held various positions in the Department of Education there. I later decided to complete my masters degree in counseling psychology, and attended Felician University.

  Prior to teaching, I attended Salve Regina University in Newport Rhode Island where I played football and majored in Behavioral Science. 

   After I completed my education I began my career as a therapist for the state of New Jersey. There I worked with students with special needs and young men and women who needed  mandated therapy by the courts. Before I started as a guidance counselor I was the Program Director of the Adolescent Career Exploration program or A.C.E. for short. This was a vocational program for students going on to different fields in the workforce. Students were trained in specific jobs that were chosen to their liking. They were paid to do those jobs once training was completed. The curriculum that I wrote was used to teach students how to not only work, but for specific career skills such as, how to navigate the interview process and how to write a resume.

   My most recent position was as a School Counselor at High Point Regional High School. There I advised students on their next important steps in life, whether it was attending college, a specific career field, or the military. 

  Currently I’m a School Counselor at Westwood Regional High School, and coach football for the Cardinals. 

  Welcome students! I look forward to meeting and advising you.
