What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a counseling-focused role where I can advocate for students, support academic and social-emotional growth, respond thoughtfully in crises, and help create inclusive environments where individuals can thrive.

I'm building a career in school and mental health counseling, grounded in psychology, education, student advocacy, and social-emotional support.

At NYC DOE, I deliver instruction across middle school ELA, math, social studies, and media classrooms while providing structured academic and individualized student support in high-need environments.

I've also led executive operations at Diamond Mine and Verizon, coordinating strategic initiatives, cross-functional communication, budgets, reporting, HR processes, and large-scale events. I bring trauma-informed practice, crisis response, confidentiality, and collaborative problem-solving to creating inclusive environments where students can thrive.
