Summary

As an experienced retired counselor, I believe that I should continue to utilize my passion to assist students with their educational, social and emotional development.

Students face a multitude of issues and obstacles. With the proper guidance and caring, they all have the potential to become caring, productive adults.

I am confident that I can contribute to their accomplishing this goal.

Once a counselor, always a counselor.
