Hello Everyone! I'm John. I was born in the Philippines and raised in San Francisco. I am a product of SFUSD, a graduate of City College of San Francisco and San Francisco State University.

I am excited to be part of this class, learn as much skills as possible, and extremely grateful to be part of the School Counseling program! This journey so far has taught me so much about myself and how much I want to give back to my community advocating for students!

Other than spending my days and nights at school or at work, I am walking my gremlin... I mean dog, trying new restaurants, honing my photography skills, and spending time with my family and my significant other!

Hello! I’m Kelsey and I was born and raised here in San Francisco.

I graduated from UC Davis with a degree in Community and Regional Development (CRD). So far, graduate school has been an amazing experience and it is the first time that I’ve actually enjoyed school. I enjoy the cohort experience and I look forward to graduating!!

I would like to learn about collaborating and how to involve those who don’t like to work in a group setting. Additionally, I’m looking forward to learning about consulting and laws.

Hey Ling! :D it’s Ty lol. Well I’m a UC Davis Graduate and I recently moved to San Francisco aka THE CITY August 2017 to pursue my Masters in School Counseling. I’m enjoying the many vibes of SF and my Golden cohort has been a gorgeously lit time intellectual memories (hehe).
I’m excited for this class because I heavily dream of the day our parents, educators and administrators can see the power we can have as a team rather than separate pieces of different puzzles. We only have one Earth here ha. To empowering our youth!

Hi Ling! So excited to be taking another class with you! I was born in the Portland area, and I attended Willamette University with a degree in Psychology. Afterwards I spent about two years working as a Special Needs Instructional Assistant before realizing I wanted to pursue School Counseling. Now I'm here in the city, experiencing things I never imagined possible and loving every second of it!

Through this course, I hope to learn how to collaborate with different groups of people effectively, and get the most of these interactions. People generally have the same goal in mind, to help our students get the best education possible, how can we all work together to do just that? We all bring different pieces of the puzzle, how do we work together to make it all fit?

Hi Ling,
I was born and raised in Daly City, CA. I enjoy FIl-AM BBQ, Jollibee, and boba. Currently working as a Transition Para for SFUSD and a security guard. I graduated from SFSU with a BA in Psych but dabbled in ethnic studies, and urban studies and planning. I've worn different hats in education from being a tutor, unpaid group teacher, and now counseling intern. I've been interested in how we can create better education systems to help students achieve their ultimate potential, and more importantly help people not lose their love for learning.

I am interested in learning how to be a more effective communicator with difficult parents, as I sometimes crumble during those conversations (its happened at my previous school).

Hey Ling! You know me already :). I was born in the Bay area but grew up in Davis. I graduated Loyola Marymount University with degrees in Psychology and African American studies. I am currently on a journey of re-finding myself and my interest.

I look forward to learning great ways to communicate effectively with the community inside and outside of school. This is an area that I can definitely strengthen so I am excited to learn.

Hello Everyone! I was born and raised in Watsonville and have been living in the Bay Area for the last 10 years now. I am a mother of two who loves to spending time with family and exploring new places.

Since beginning this journey I have so much not only about myself but what type of counselor I would like to be.  I am looking forward to learning new strategies on how effectively communicate not only with students but with staff and parents I work with to create more positive relationships.

Hello! I was born and raised in San Jose&Santa Clara and I love the Golden State 💛. I practice self-care by spending time with my loved ones: boyfriend, big Korean family, friends, listening to music live at shows, watching my favorite tv shows, and getting outside with my dog to enjoy the weather. I’m learning so much through this program and I’m looking forward to continue growing and becoming an effective and empowered school counselor who can advocate for students. Here’s to the rest of our program and learning even more!

Hello...born in Colorado, raised in San Jose. I’m a mother of one who loves spending time with family and close friends doing anything from everything to absolutely nothing.
As the majority of my experience is in post secondary education, communicating with parents isn’t something I’m used to. I’m looking forward to further developing my skills and expanding my knowledge to help as I transition into the world of K-12.

Hello everyone!
I’m excited to start another amazing course here at USF. I am loving my journey and transition in becoming a school counselor. I am a person with a lot passions and my three top are helping others, learn and teach the beauty of cultures, and let free through dancing.

Current favorite quote: “Culture makes people understand each other better. And if they understand each other better in their soul, it is easier to overcome the economic and political barriers. But first they have to understand that their neighbor is, in the end, just like them, with the same problems, the same questions”
~ Paulo Coelho

Hello! Originally from Pittsburgh, PA and have been living in the Pescadero area for 11 years. I love the quiet, slow paced, country lifestyle. I am looking forward to the next class, and beyond! I am most interested in learning how to communicate with parents that may have different opinions than the counselor. How can you be supportive in challenging situations with parents?
