      I graduated from Washington State University in 2002 with a degree in Communications, Public Relations. I worked in the Admissions office at Saint Martin's University for a few years while also working on obtaining my Master's in Education degree and Guidance and Counseling certification. Before coming to THS, I worked as a Counselor at Centralia Middle School and Tumwater Middle school. I am very passionate about working with students and feel that these years set the tone for developing the knowledge, attitudes and skills necessary for them to become healthy, competent and confident life-long learners. My goal every day is to make a positive impact. I am so excited I get to make that impact at Tumwater High School.

Contact me – I am here Monday - Friday from 7:10 a.m. – 2:40 p.m. Please stop by and see me anytime! I would love to meet you.

     Hello! I graduated from Pacific Lutheran University with an English degree and Teaching certification. After teaching English and Yearbook for a few years (at THS!), I went back to school and got my Master’s degree in School Counseling. I consider it a gift to be able to support student’s academic and emotional growth. When I’m not at THS, you can often find me out and about at one of my three kids’ sporting events or activities. I cherish time with my family, our people loving dog, and any outdoor adventure Washington has to offer. Please come by the Counseling Center and say hi or feel free to stay awhile and chat. I would be delighted to share a bit of sunshine, even it it’s just in conversation!

     I started at SPSCC and then transferred to Pacific Lutheran University where I earned my undergraduate degree in Social Work. After eight years of working in college admission I headed back to college and received my Masters of Education in School Counseling from City University. During the few moments my three kids are not keeping me totally busy, you can often find me tapping my feet to Irish music, daydreaming about the time I rode the Hogwarts Express (true story), or trying to master the ultimate chocolate chip cookie (if you have the recipe let me know). Please stop by my office whenever to say hi, challenge me to an Irish jig-off, or share your family's secret chocolate chip cookie recipe!

     Hi there!!  I graduated from Whitworth University in 2008 with a degree in Communications and Business and as I was walking across the stage at graduation I realized “I want to be a School Counselor when I grow up”!  After some time working at IKEA (still one of my favorite jobs!) and teaching English in South Korea for a year (best experience of my life) I graduated from Lewis and Clark College in Portland with my degree in School Counseling in 2014.  I started my Counseling career at a Middle School in Federal Way, before landing my dream job at THS in 2018.  I have loved being a T-Bird and am so grateful to work in such an amazing school.  When I’m not at THS I like to spend time outside with my little family, give my most precious Golden Retriever dog kisses and cuddles, and daydream about all the fun places I want to travel to.  Please stop by my office if you need anything (or even if you don’t need anything but you want to just talk about dogs, I’m here for that too!).
