Work Experience:
I have worked in the field of education since 2011. Prior to becoming a school counselor for Roxbury, I worked as a k-8 school counselor for an educational company, teacher’s assistant for emotionally and behaviorally challenged students k-8, a k-12 substitute teacher, and a mental health specialist in a partial care treatment program at a hospital (ages 5-18). I also currently serve as an adjunct faculty member for a university.
