About the School Counselor

Hello OLG! I am Ms. Kim!KimB profile

A native of Northern California, I grew up exploring tide pools, camping and hiking. Upon completing a double major in Creative Writing and Psychology at Dominican University of CA, I fled north to serve two years as an AmeriCorps volunteer in Oregon and absolutely fell in love with the pacific northwest. I gained a Masters of Science in Environmental Education from Southern Oregon University, which led to unique and life-changing experiences in outdoor education and recreation programs in Oregon, Washington, and Alaska. Recently, I completed a Masters of Education in School Counseling from Prescott College and have been with OLG as the School Counselor since 2021. I enjoy hiking, camping, cooking, reading, board games, and spending quality time with friends and my dog Scout.

I bring over two decades of experiences working with youth into my practice as the OLG School Counselor. I truly believe that every student can succeed when provided the right tools and support. I strive to help OLG be a safe, welcoming place where students can set and achieve goals, learn to work through challenges, grow social skills, practice empathy, and begin to develop a strong self-identity.

My office door is always open!
