This will be my 27th year in education and my 18th year in school counseling. I taught in Lamar CISD for 2 years and then in Cy-Fair ISD for the next 4 years. I became a school counselor in 2006 and worked as an elementary, middle school, and high school counselor in Cy-Fair ISD for my last 8 years there. I have been blessed to work here in my home town as a school counselor for the last 10 years. As a former Brahma, it’s truly special to work in East Bernard ISD and contribute to the school that meant so much to me growing up.

I believe that every student has unique strengths and potential. My goal every day is to give students tools to build confidence, develop problem-solving skills, and foster positive relationships. By addressing each student’s individual needs with empathy and respect, I aim to guide them toward achieving their personal and academic goals.
