- Quote I live by "I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it, don't wait for it, just let it happen. It could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair or two cups of good hot black coffee."
Dependable, Creative, Energetic
Hi! I’m Jael! I am an Academic Coach for Staying Ahead of the Game. I have a bachelor’s degree in Psychology, and I am currently pursuing a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have experience working in social work for over three years, providing positive education and support to families and children. I have also worked as a preschool teacher for the past year.
I enjoy coaching with SAOTG and watching the process of change with my students. I enjoy seeing their confidence grow and watching them feel more in control. I hope to always teach my students that mistakes and setbacks do not have to define them. Change is possible, and when you have the correct tools to set you up for success, it’s possible to achieve great things! I always strive to provide my students with a positive support system and set them up with skills that will last a lifetime.
