What is Your Why?

I believe that all students are talented and are doing the best they can with the level of awareness they have. Growing up, I saw firsthand the negative impact mental illness can have, and also that it doesn’t have to be a person’s destiny. Because of that, I provide unconditional positive regard to students while walking alongside them in reaching their goals.
