About Me
About Me
This is my 18th year as a school counselor. I graduated from TCNJ with an Elementary Education/Psychology degree and earned my Masters in School Counseling from Kean University. I taught 4th grade at Menlo Park Terrace School #19 for 7 years before coming to JFK as a school counselor. When I'm not at work, I am busy running my 3 kids to all of their activities. In my free time, I love a relaxing day at the beach. Looking forward to a great school year!
