CES School Counselor
Hello Carver Cubs!
I am excited to serve as your 2022-23 School Counselor. My husband and I recently relocated to the Raleigh area from Northeast Tennessee. I graduated from East Tennessee State University in 2005 and have 12+ years of school counseling experience. At this time, I am pursuing my Ed.D at Liberty University with the hope of supporting other school counselors in the future. Although students are my main focus, I also prioritize relationships with teachers, caregivers, and community members. I look forward to working with you all!
