With over 25 years of experience in education, I’ve had the privilege of serving in multiple roles including teacher and counselor. My work has always centered around one mission: supporting the whole child—academically, emotionally, and socially.I specialize in creating and implementing innovative, student-centered programming that draws from Positive Education principles and a solutions focused approach. These tools help me understand and empower students, building strong, supportive relationships that foster resilience and growth.I have extensive experience in collaborating with families, teachers, and outside clinicians to create effective behavior plans and ensure consistent, holistic support. I also lead annual initiatives that connect students with trusted adults, promoting a sense of belonging and emotional safety.My work includes delivering essential mental health education such as Signs of Suicide (SOS) lessons for 7th and 8th graders, as well as foundational mental health lessons for 6th grade. As a trained facilitator in the Positive Education Enrichment Curriculum, I believe in nurturing both well-being and academic achievement.I am passionate about helping students thrive and am always looking for new ways to elevate their experience in school and life.
