Building STRONG Minds

9 years as a Public School Counselor at the Elementary level - PreK - 5th.

I enjoy bibliotherapy with my students. My favorite authors are Julia Cook and Trudy Ludwig. I also enjoy hands on activities, games, and creating items for students to take home and show to parents what they learned in Counselor Connection.

ASCA Scholarship recipient, National Counselor Certification 2007 - present, and Recognized ASCA Model Program 2009-2012 RCPS Platnium Comprehensive Counseling Program

Bachelor's in Psychology, Master's in School Counseling, and Education Specialist in School Counseling

I love being a School Counselor. My goal is to one day be a School Counselor educator or be the lead School Counselor. I enjoy sharing what I know with others and helping them on their journey to becoming a great school counselor. I love working with students and trying to find new ways to reach them. It is my goal to make sure that each student in my building knows that I am in the building and there for them anytime they need me. I tell students all the time my job is to protect, empower, and support them so they can be productive members of society. Additionally, I am a wife and mother of 2 beautiful girls.
