"A positive attitude can really make dreams come true."

A little about myself

I am from East Chicago, Indiana but grew up in South Texas 🌞

I have been a school counselor since January of 2023. I was an elementary teacher for 15 years before that.

What I love about being a school counselor is that I can put the emotional well- being of our students, staff and families as my priority.

My favorite book is The Little Prince. It reminds me to see the best in others and that everyone deserves kindness.

My daughter is going into eight grade this year 🌟

Our kitty likes to see the world through rose colored glasses 😎

Sleep

It's very important to make sure that your child is getting enough sleep at night. It is recommended that school-aged children get 9-12 hours of sleep a night.

Communication

Make sure that you are talking to your kids every day. A simple question such as, "What was your favorite part about today?" can spark great conversations.

Make Goals

Make small goals with your child. These can be monthly goals that will help them stay focused.
