Bio

As a dedicated College and Career Advisor with a strong background in educational support services, I specialize in guiding underrepresented students through their college applications, financial aid, and career planning process. My experience spans both secondary and postsecondary settings, where I’ve led workshops, facilitated 1:1 advising sessions, and coordinated outreach initiatives to improve student outcomes. In addition to my advising expertise, I bring a solid foundation in data analysis, leveraging tools like Excel, Power BI, and SQL to track student progress, evaluate program effectiveness, and inform decision-making. I’m passionate about using data-driven insights to enhance educational equity and drive continuous improvement. Whether I’m mentoring a student, collaborating with educators, or presenting at a workshop, I aim to empower every learner to envision and achieve their academic and professional goals.
