I am a long-time educator and dedicated school counselor at Sweetwater High, where I’ve spent over 25 years helping students navigate their academic and personal journeys. My passion for advocacy also led me to serve a two-year term as president of the Sweetwater Counseling and Guidance Association labor union, fighting for the resources and support our local counselors deserve.
At home, my life is anchored by my family. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Don, for over 21 years. Together, we are the proud parents of two teenage sons. Our eldest recently celebrated the milestone of graduating high school as his class valedictorian, while our youngest is currently a tenth-grader who keeps us constantly on the move with basketball, orchestra cello performances, and church youth activities.
When I'm not working with students or keeping up with my family, I pour my energy into wellness and self-care. This inspired my passion project, www.wllnsswdnsdy.com a space dedicated to promoting mindfulness, balance, and health. Navigating life’s changing seasons—from the daily realities of perimenopause to stepping into new professional horizons—has only deepened my commitment to sharing this wellness journey with others.
Ultimately, this site is a space to document the milestones, lessons, and memories that shape our family.
