With over 12 years of dedicated experience as a College and Career Counselor, I specialize in guiding first-generation, Pell eligible scholars through the college application and matriculation process. Working at an intentionally diverse public charter school, I collaborate closely with scholars and families from various socioeconomic and demographic backgrounds. My bilingual proficiency enables me to effectively support scholars and their families in their native language, ensuring informed decisions, personalized guidance and enhancing access to post-secondary opportunities for all scholars.
