I have been a counselor in Poudre School District since 2011 and at Poudre High School beginning in the fall of 2013. As a Fort Collins Native and Colorado State graduate, I love this town. When I am not hanging out in the hallways at Poudre, I am hiking the foothills, reading a good book or playing with my two favorite pups - Kai and Oli. Kai is a "PHS Staff Member" as well, making her impact as a Therapy Dog in our school. I love my work at as a School Counselor and am passionate about every student learning more about who they are and what makes them come alive. In this work, I am most alive working with Freshmen as they transition to high school and with the PHS Ambassadors and their integral role in that process. I am proud to be a Poudre Impala!
