Before I went into counseling, I taught high school history

I wanted to be a counselor because the students I taught often came to me for personal problems rather than to get help with the material I taught. Haven't regretted that decision yet; I think I made the right choice.

Schools I graduated from:

• Rutgers University (B.A. in history and anthropology)

• Rider University (Master's certificate for high school teaching)

• Georgian Court University (Master's of Education in School Counseling)
