Personal Introduction

The transition from high school education to college education is a tremendous experience. As a counselor who spent 10 years in a K-12 education setting, I understand the obstacles that our students face with this transition. My role here at 17³Ô¹ÏÍø is to help guide our students through the college process no matter what their experience has been. The 17³Ô¹ÏÍø community is a wonderfully diverse student body. My experience living through out the United States combined with my knowledge of all levels of the education system gives students a unique counseling experience. My goal is to provide a warm and friendly environment where students feel comfortable with their counseling needs here at 17³Ô¹ÏÍø.
