I bring over 25 years of experience in private and public education, college consulting, and athletic coaching, offering a unique and personalized approach to helping students reach their full potential. My career has spanned classrooms, athletic fields, and one-on-one advising sessions—always with a focus on empowering students to thrive academically, athletically, and personally.


As a seasoned college consultant, I’ve guided hundreds of students through the college admissions process, including student-athletes pursuing NCAA opportunities. I love motivating students, fostering self-belief systems, and creating customized pathways for success.


I'm the founder and director of Worcester County United Field Hockey Academy and serve as the Northeast Director of NIKE Sports Camps for field hockey, soccer, hockey and lacrosse. My programs have supported players across New England and beyond, focusing not only on athletic skill but also on leadership, confidence, and college readiness.


Throughout my career, I’ve also served as a head field hockey coach at the collegiate level, a college and career readiness teacher in urban schools, and an educational consultant for students of all learning styles—including those with IEPs, 504s, and executive functioning needs. 


Currently, I’m completing my Certificate in College Counseling at UC Berkeley, combining lifelong learning with a deep passion for helping others grow. My approach is warm, strategic, and deeply student-centered—because success looks different for everyone, and every student deserves a champion in their corner.


I also love gardening, running, watching New England professional sports, and spending time with my husband and our three young, adult children.
