Since 2008, I have been serving our communities' kids as a teacher, school counselor and youth development leader. With a passion and desire to help our youth gain the skills needed to cope with life's challenges, I have dedicated my career to help those in need. I seek to provide a safe environment for children and teens to heal and grow. By providing individual counseling, play therapy, and therapeutic groups, youth will be empowered to find hope and healing.

I am married to Joe and together we have two sons. I am currently in my 7th year as the Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Club of Vernon. As an Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate, I am under the supervision of Magan Mangold, MA, LPC-S.
