Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

Hearing Dr. Abrams validate how unique the 2021 SMC Counseling cohort was—even before the pandemic defined our collective. I will always be appreciative to have worked with and learned from an exceptionally resilient group of clinicians.

Favorite Quote

"One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feelings. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child."
— C.G. Jung

Favorite Saint Mary's Memory

Half of my program has been in-person and half has been distance learning. So there were lots of special moments from both periods. My favorite is my first grad class ever, where I met a lot of the amazing people in my cohort and in this program. We had a lot of fun and did some whacky things in that class, but it bonded us so much! We still talk about the musical chairs and scream boxes!

My Next Chapter

I accepted a full-time position as an Academic and Social Emotional Counselor at Cristo Rey De La Salle East Bay High School in Oakland.
