WC Guidance Counselor / Grades: 6-12

2014-15 was my first year at Woodbury Central.  I am very pleased to work here with a great staff and wonderful students.  Before coming to Woodbury Central, I taught PreAlgebra/Algebra for 9 years in Council Bluffs and was a Counselor in Omaha for 7 years.  I earned my Bachelors Degree at Wayne State College and my Masters Degree at Creighton University.

I hope this page is very informative for students and parents.
