I'm excited to work with TRIO to empower students who are often underrepresented by
providing equity and opportunities. I understand the challenges of navigating school
and finding support. As a TRIO counselor, I believe in the power of education to change
lives, and I am dedicated to helping students overcome barriers and reach their full
potential. In my free time, I enjoy watching movies, reading books, and drawing.

I'm very excited to join the TRIO Team to support our students on their academic journey.
I look forward to seeing all the wonderful things our students will accomplish in
the future. When I have time, I love reading, playing games, and spending time with
my family. I can't wait to meet everyone!
