Developing into a Counselor Educator is a life-long process and I feel that I am at my second stage, whereas my first stage was becoming a counselor.  I desire to educate future counselors and this is a reflection on my development as a teacher.  I am blessed to have past experience with teaching undergraduate and assisting with graduate courses.  However, I am excited for the future possibilities to teach substance abuse, marriage and family therapy, practicum/internship, lifespan development, and foundations of counseling.  I will not limit myself to those classes, as I am open to teaching any course that I am competent to teach.
