I was the student council advisor where the heartbeat of the school ran through my classroom. My council kids and I worked with the community to bring in intergenerational activities between students and senior citizens, as well as veterans. In addition, I have coached three sports.
I am a 6-time award winning educator and education has always been at the core of my life. After obtaining a bachelor’s degree in history and my teaching credentials, I embarked on a rewarding career as a high school teacher. It wasn’t much later that I went back to school for a master’s degree in PE emphasizing Sport Administration. My experience in the classroom has provided me with valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities that students, teachers, and schools face daily.
As an educator, I advocated for my students both at the school level and at the school board level. I fought for policies that prioritize quality education and student welfare.
Over the years, I have been actively involved in the community, volunteering at several local dog rescues/shelters, helping former puppy mill dogs learn to become family members, and volunteering within my church by helping to landscape parishioner's yards.- I am dedicated to a high-quality education for all students.
- I am dedicated to fostering more parental involvement.
- I am dedicated to fiscal responsibility with taxpayer dollars.
