School counselor and education leader focused on student success and inclusive support.
What I'm looking for
I’m an education leader and school counselor with a strong background in K–12 student support, inclusive instruction, and academic guidance. I’m currently completing a Doctorate of Education and Administration Leadership.
Across my career, I’ve served as an Elementary Principal, Summer School Director, Student Teacher Supervisor, and Assistant Principal/Special Education Teacher. I bring a leadership mindset grounded in day-to-day school operations and student-centered decision-making.
I’ve also worked deeply in special education—leading K–12 Special Education Director/Teacher roles and teaching as a K–12 SPED Teacher, Kindergarten Teacher, and Special Education Teacher. My experience strengthens my ability to support diverse learners and coordinate effectively with educators and administrators.
Now in my current role as a High school Counselor, I’m focused on helping students navigate challenges, build confidence, and stay on track for long-term success. With certifications including Principal Certification and Superintendent, I’m ready to contribute to a school team that values collaboration, equity, and student outcomes.
