Welcome to the KCAL Counseling Page!

I am very proud of our school and the opportunity to serve all Keller ISD campuses.  As the CTE counselor, I am available to help in a variety of ways.  If you have any questions or need help with anything, below is my contact information.  KCAL students can request to see ​me any time during the year by filling out a request form outside my door. I will then send for them during their KCAL class.  To sign up for classes at KCAL, please see the counselor at your high school.

I can help you with:

• Information on KCAL Programs                                                    
• College applications/college searches
• Scholarship searches
• Job searches, job applications & interview tips
• Pathway/endorsement questions
• Career interest inventories and career information
• What should I do after high school?
• Social/emotional help (any topic)

• CTSOs
• Licenses, certifications
• Job shadowing, internships, practicums
• Resume help
• College essay writing tips
• Recommendation letters
• Academics
• Study skills
• Anything else you can think of - if I don't know the answer, I will​ find it!​​​​​
