About Andrea
I’m an educator and counselor-in-training. My work and learning sit at the intersection of teaching, student well-being, and mental health advocacy.
My story
Teaching has shaped how I see people: capable, complex, and worthy of support. Over time, I became especially interested in how school environments affect emotional well-being—both for students and for the adults who care for them.
This website is a professional home for that work: a place to share reflections, explore ideas, and document growth as I continue my education.
Graduate training (in progress)
I’m beginning a master’s program in counseling. My focus is on learning, ethics, and the long-term preparation required to serve others responsibly.
- Status: In progress
- Current aim: Build strong foundations through coursework, supervision, and reflective practice
- How I share: Education-focused writing and thought leadership
What this site is (and isn’t)
This is
- A professional identity and writing space
- Reflections on education and mental health advocacy
- Notes from graduate training, shared responsibly
This is not
- A place to request counseling
- Personalized guidance for individual situations
- A substitute for professional support
