About the Counselor:
I'm originally from Adams County in Pennsylvania & I currently reside in Durham, NC. I am a 1989 graduate of York College of Pennsylvania with a BA degree in English. I then continued my education and received my teacher’s license in 1994. I worked as a Language Arts teacher in Chatham, Wake and Durham counties for 19 years. I received my master’s degree in School Counseling in 2015 from Capella University. I consider it an honor to have worked at Person Early College of Innovation and Leadership since it opened in 2016. I enjoy working with students and having the opportunity to make a positive difference in their lives.
My primary responsibility is to help students achieve their educational goals by being part of the educational team. However, many times personal and social issues are barriers to these goals. I address academic, social and personal needs in individual and group settings so that they can be the best student and person they can be.
I work with our college liaison to serve as a resource to prepare our students and their parents for life after high school.
