Summary

For the last 20 years, I have dedicated myself to being a Career & Technical educator. In this time I have seen first-hand the lack of drive that today’s students need in order to be successful members of the community upon graduation. My desire for entering the counseling profession is to help students on their path to the real world after high school. I want to help them find the training, higher education, and careers that they need to be happy and successful members of the community in which they live. I hope to dedicate the next 20 years of my career to bridging the gap between a student's high school experience and their future.
