About
I am an experienced educator and counselor with a passion for helping students and individuals reach their fullest potential. With a Doctorate in Counseling Psychology and over 10 years of experience across various roles in education, mental health, and emotional wellness, I thrive in environments where I can make a meaningful impact through teaching, counseling, and mentorship. I have taught a diverse range of courses including Sociology, Psychology, Life Span Development, and Counseling Skills, both in traditional and online settings. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering critical thinking, active learning, and real-world application. I believe in creating inclusive, student-centered classrooms where learners feel empowered to engage with the material and explore its relevance to their lives and careers. My background in counseling enhances my ability to support students holistically, guiding them not only academically but emotionally as they navigate their personal and professional development. In addition to teaching, I have extensive experience providing counseling services to individuals, families, and groups, where I emphasize emotional resilience and practical skills development. I enjoy contributing to research and am constantly seeking ways to integrate evidence-based practices into my work. I am committed to diversity, inclusion, and lifelong learning, and I look forward to opportunities where I can continue to make a positive impact in the fields of education, counseling, and human development.
