I earned my bachelor’s degree in Communications in 2011 and later completed my master’s in School Counseling in 2018, both from the University of South Alabama.
Before stepping into the world of school counseling, I worked in marketing and college admissions. I’ve been at PHS since the 2020–2021 school year, and I truly love being part of this school community.
I have a special place in my heart for students who are just starting high school. It’s such an important stage, full of big emotions, new experiences, and a lot of personal growth. I feel lucky to walk alongside them as they figure out who they are and where they want to go.
My counseling approach is rooted in unconditional positive regard. I believe every student deserves to be seen, heard, and valued just as they are.
Outside of school, I’m married with two wonderful kids who keep life busy and fun. I love trying new restaurants, listening to live music, and spending time outside.
