- I joined Gilbert’s counseling team in 2017. Previous to this role I got to work as a kindergarten and second grade classroom teacher. As a Gilbert grad myself, I take great pride in supporting our students towards being the best they can be. Outside of school I love spending time with my family.

- I joined the counseling staff in 2021. My role is to reinforce the curriculum of the school counseling program in 1:1 or small group settings. I work directly with students on mindfulness, emotional regulation, behavioral interventions, conflict resolution, social skills, worries, etc. I am so grateful to live in such a generous community where families look out for one another. It also doesn’t hurt to be close to ISU so my family and I can cheer on the Cyclones. I love to travel and spend time with my family and friends.
