Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am the current Board of Education member representing District C and the Vice-President of the Board. I was appointed by the Harford County Council in February 2020 around two weeks before the schools closed for the pandemic. I have worked as a teacher in public and private schools, and as a professor at the community college. Student success has been my focus and I have worked in Developmental Education helping underprepared students be successful in higher education. This experience gives me a unique perspective that can aid in the design of recovery from the learning loss some students experience during the closures. Both of my children graduated from HCPS. I have lived in Bel Air for 23 years and my husband and I are active members of the community.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• We need to make sure that the children remain safe while at school. This is a community effort requiring partnerships with the parents and law enforcement.
• The mental well being of our students needs to remain in the forefront of our designs.
• Students need life skills such as financial literacy to be successful in life.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Our students, staff and faculty need to be funded properly for our school system to prosper..
