Irma has recently moved to the area from Kansas where she worked as an Academic Advisor for the College of Architecture at Kansas State University. While working at KSU, Irma traveled to Guatemala as part of a rural healthcare project where she was the translator and also trained as an advocate in the Green Bandana Project and provider of Mental Health First Aid. Irma has been a tutor, special education paraeducator and interpreter in elementary school, middle school, and college. Irma is a native Spanish speaker and moved to the US when she was in elementary school where she had to learn a new language while also trying to understand US schools/education, like many of our students. Irma also speaks Awakateco, a Mayan dialect in Guatemala. She is excited to join Mountain View to work with students, families and staff because she is committed to student success not only in academics, but also in their well being too.
