Born and raised in Sussex County, Delaware. Oldest of two children. My younger brother is a member of the United States Air Force. I have been working in education for 15 years, 13 years as a school counselor. I graduated from Seaford Senior High School. I graduated from Delaware State University in 2002 with my Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and Chemistry. I then attended Wilmington University and earned my Master’s Degree in K-12 School Counseling in 2004. In 2008, I earned a second Master’s Degree in K-12 School Leadership and just recently in 2015, I earned my Advanced Professional Certificate in School Counseling.
I’ve been married to my husband for 12 years who also works for the Lake Forest School District. I have two daughters, Aleah- 5th grader at Lake Central Elementary and Alexa- 2nd grader at Lake North Elementary. I assist with the girl’s JV and Varsity basketball when I am available. I love the Dallas Cowboys, playing basketball and spending time with my family.
Advice to my students- always challenge yourself and work hard. You will never know what you are capable of until you try. Set a goal that will make you happy but also successful.
