I completed my Masters Degree in School Counseling at Shippensburg University. Upon graduating, I worked as a school counselor for five years and then a mental wellness coach for three years. While I love getting to know my students on an individual level, I also thoroughly enjoy group counseling and teaching character education/social skills content.

My counseling roots are firmly planted in my own experiences with anxiety and depression. Navigating home life, relationships, and academic success can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be that way. As the wise educator Rita Pierson said, "Every kid needs a champion." I firmly believe that, if each child has just one adult in their life who nurtures their strengths and supports them during hardships, positive change can occur. Who knows? Maybe I could be that champion for your student.
