About Me

I recently graduated from ASU with a Master of Counseling in mental health. I also have ASU undergrad degrees in psychology and English with a minor in family and human development from the Barrett Honors College. I have served as the Prison Education Awareness Club (PEAC) president for three consecutive years, bringing prestigious speakers to the university, forging relationships with the Arizona Department of Corrections, and inspiring education in one of the bleakest settings. Additionally, I interned as student Editor-In-Chief for Superstition Review, an online literary magazine. By engaging with the literary community, I worked as a public speaker, online social media brander, and publication editor. My family and human development minor allowed me to learn more about education as applied to different age groups, and I have experience working with children, adolescents, college students, and adults. I believe in a growth mindset philosophy where each person can continue to grow and learn--nothing is fixed in talent. By engaging in creative and conversational methods, I motivate students to grasp the concepts, learn to love writing, and feel confident in their abilities. When I was a youth volunteer soccer coach, I mentored children in a low-income setting and teaches soccer, nutrition and health. Taking on the mentor role, I live out my own philosophy at home and in school, practicing self-care and enjoying time to drink coffee, read, and do pilates and yoga.
