I am a compassionate and dedicated professional with a Master’s Degree in School Counseling from Indiana Wesleyan University with over 10 years of experience in school counseling, student advocacy, and family support. Throughout my career, I have been committed to identifying the needs of students and families, connecting them with essential community resources, and creating opportunities that promote stability, growth, and success.
I have experience developing and leading initiatives that address critical family needs, including establishing a school-based food pantry and partnering with local churches and community organizations to provide resources and support. I have also coordinated annual shoe distribution events, connected families with food, clothing, and housing resources, and facilitated parent information sessions and community-wide events.
My professional approach is rooted in compassion, collaboration, advocacy, and relationship-building. I believe in meeting individuals and families where they are, recognizing their unique circumstances, and helping them navigate barriers by connecting them with meaningful resources and support. I am passionate about making a positive difference in the lives of others and empowering individuals and families to achieve greater stability and independence.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my fiancé (Keith), my three children (Lily 19, Hunter 17, and Austin 15), and our dog, Tina. I recently became engaged and am excited about this new chapter in my life! In my free time, I enjoy all things sports, music, hiking, and making memories with friends and family. I love staying active, experiencing new things, and spending quality time with the people who mean the most to me.
