Welcome to the 2017-2018 School Year!
As one of the two school guidance counselors at WES, I am committed to assisting in the personal/social, academic, and career development of each and every student. I teach classroom guidance to all of the kindergarten and 2nd grade students. I also conduct individual and small group counseling sessions when a referral is made by a teacher, parent, or the administration. Here is some background information about me:
I was born and raised in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania and graduated from Beaver Falls High School. I then attended Indiana University of Pennsylvania where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Music Education, certified to teach music K-12. I was a music teacher in the Blairsville-Saltsburg School District in Pennsylvania for 17 years.
I continued my graduate studies at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and earned my Master of Education in Counselor Education. I am certified in Elementary and Secondary Guidance.
I was hired as an elementary guidance counselor with the Georgetown County School District and moved to Pawleys Island. This is my 23rd year with GCSD. I have worked at Plantersville Elementary, Brown's Ferry Elementary and Waccamaw Elementary.
