I am a High School Counselor and Student Intervention Facilitator at Oak Lawn Community High School. I spent 20 years working in corporate, non-profit, higher ed, manufacturing, entertainment, and digital advertising. I have had the opportunity to be mentored by smart leaders who have shaped my work ethic, character, time and task management skills, and I am now privileged to be encouraging students how they can build life skills, succeed academically, and build motivation by connecting their academic interests to meaningful and satisfying goals and careers.
