Ms Nita June
About
I am passionate about teaching and supporting young adults to be happy, fulfilled and to find their respective way in the world. As a teenager, I sought this kind of guidance and did not find it. My longing for a coach and mentor on my path to adulthood was the inspiration for the work I do today. I hold a Bachelor's degree Magna Cum Laude from Barnard College, and I followed this course of study with a Master of Fine Arts from Naropa University. After five years as a high school teacher, in 2012 I began focusing on college counseling, tutoring and mentoring, and have completed the Independent Educational Consultant Certification course through UC Irvine. In 2018, I became a full member of HECA, the Higher Educational Consultant's Association.
In addition to counseling work, I have my own theatre company, and am a director and producer. I am also an avid trail runner and cyclist, an outdoor adventurer, a mama to two beloved doggies, and a true lover of learning and creativity.
