Hello Titans!  I am excited to have joined Dominion this year and work with students who have last names beginning with the letters F through I.  After 12 years working as a school counselor in Washington, D.C. and Alexandria City, I moved to Loudoun County this summer.  I have worked with students in grades Pre-K through 12 and high school is my favorite level.  I am passionate about supporting students with overcoming obstacles in order to reach their full potential and postsecondary goals.

Here are a few fun facts about me:

• I earned my Bachelor’s degree from James Madison University (Go Dukes!).  I was a 2008 recipient of the JMU All Together One Award.  If you go on a campus visit, you will find a brick with my name on it outside of the main campus dining hall.

• Running is my stress relief and I have completed 2 marathons.

• I will eat appetizers over dessert any day of the week.

• My favorite coffee mug can hold at least 3 cups of coffee and has pictures of my two young children on it.  They are the main reason I drink so much coffee!

It’s always a great day to be a Titan!

I joined the school counseling team at Dominion way back in 2012. I’m Northern Virginia born and raised and earned my degrees from the College of William & Mary (Go Tribe!) and the University of Virginia (Wahoowa!) I love spending time outdoors with my husband and our three children. 

My favorite part of being a school counselor is helping my students overcome obstacles and achieve their goals. High school is an exciting and sometimes challenging phase of life, and I’m here to support our Titans to make the most of their experience.
