A little bit about me
I was born and raised on the south east side of Chicago. I've been working for Chicago Public Schools since 2013 and have been the counselor at Virgil I Grissom since February of 2019. I love what I do and really enjoy working with students. I am a huge believer in advocacy and have worked very closely with the Chicago Teachers Union to advocate for counselors across the district. I truly love what I do and I enjoy working with all my students at Grissom. I Believe all students have the capacity to learn and be successful in life and I am here to help.
