downtown visitor center coordinator
counselor bio
Hello students, I am the Visitor Center Coordinator for the UTSA Downtown Campus. As for a little history, I attended Will Rogers Elementary, Mark Twain Middle School, Blessed Sacrament, and graduated from Edison High School. Go SAISD! I then received my B.A. and M.S. at the University of Wisconsin-Madison - Go Badgers! My Bachelor Degree is in Legal Studies, Women Studies, and Sociology, with a Chicano Studies certificate, and my Master's Degree is in Counseling Psychology. I missed my family so much that I moved back to San Anto for a while and we will see where I end up next. That said, I would love to assist you in making the decision to come to UTSA by visiting our lovely campuses. The Downtown Campus has daily individual tours at 2pm and group tours at 10am (must schedule two weeks in advance for groups). If you have any questions please call 210-458-2000. To Schedule a Group Tour please visit: https://www.utsa.edu/counselorscorner/index.cfm

I graduated from Deer Park High School in 1997 and was considering a number of universities for my education. After being accepted to, and visiting UT Austin, Baylor, Texas State and others, UTSA just felt right for me. I completed my B.S. degree in Biology in 2001 and began working in admissions. It is a wonderful job that allows me to meet so many fun and interesting people. More importantly, I get to help them through the college admissions process. If you are in the Houston area, feel free to give my office a call or email me to set up an appointment. My office hours are Monday-Friday, 8am - 5pm. I see visitors on an apppointment-only basis. 2100 West Loop South (Southbound Feeder, San Felipe exit) 9th Floor Reception Area Houston, TX 77027 Voice: 713.590.5145 Fax: 713.590.5146
