Hi Eagles! I’m so lucky to have the opportunity to work with our CCE students and families, and I’m excited for a new year and another adventure with you all! Here’s a little bit about me:  

I graduated from KU with my Bachelors in Social Work, which I used for a few years to help families in the foster care/adoption setting. After having my second child, I decided to go back to school for my Masters in Counseling and Play Therapy Certificate, through MNU. I have worked at both the elementary and high school levels, but elementary is where my heart is ❤️ 

I live in Overland Park with my husband, Joey, and two kids, Charlie (10) and Nora (8.5). I also have the sweetest, snuggliest dogs, Layla and Brownie. To say our lives are busy would be an understatement! In my free(ish) time, I love being with family and friends, finding new scary movies to watch, decorating for the holidays, and reading. 

If you read through all that, thank you for your interest in getting to know your CCE school counselor! I can’t wait to share the school year with you!
