I have worked in numerous settings such as hospitals, private and public social services,
all of which have shaped my career. I teach a number of courses and develop new curriculum,
courses and programs to enhance the overall mission of the college. I recently created
the Career Mentoring Program and Hawk Career Readiness Program along with publishing
my work with the NCDA (2019) on the lack of mentorship for first generation students.

I am a licensed mental health counselor and I started at 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 in 2019 after one year as Assistant Professor of Psychology at Heritage University. I began my career as a community college counselor in 1995, working at community colleges before entering clinical mental health work. Experiencing academic and personal success at a community college was life changing for me and it's my goal to make sure every student I meet at 网赌正规真人实体在线平台 has that same opportunity.
