My Focus
- Student Mental & Behavioral Health
- Fiscal Responsibility
- Special Education & Student Support
- Education That Meets Students Where They Are
Why Me?
My commitment to education and public service runs deep. As a homeschool parent, I have spent countless hours researching curriculum, learning styles, and instructional approaches, gaining first-hand insight into what works—and what doesn’t. I also have a child enrolled in the Menomonee Falls School District, giving me a personal stake in the decisions made by the School Board. In addition, I currently serve as President of the Menomonee Falls Public Library Board. In this role, I have gained valuable experience in governance, fiscal responsibility, and community service. Serving on the Library Board has strengthened my ability to work collaboratively, make thoughtful financial decisions, and keep the community’s best interests at the forefront. Libraries and schools share a common mission: promoting literacy, learning, and opportunity for all.
I believe strongly in transparency, accountability, and responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars. Our community entrusts us not only with their financial resources but with their children’s futures. That responsibility deserves careful leadership and integrity.
As a mother of four children, ages 7, 14, 14, and 16, education is deeply personal for me. One of my children currently attends North Middle School, while the rest are homeschooled, giving me a broad and balanced perspective on education. My twins are active in Girl Scouts and Drama Club, and I also volunteer with my church — experiences that reinforce my belief in developing well-rounded, confident, and resilient young people.
I am committed to listening to parents, partnering with educators, and working collaboratively to ensure Menomonee Falls schools remain strong for generations to come. Together, we can build schools that reflect our community’s values and give every child the opportunity to thrive.
I bring a commonsense approach focused on fiscal responsibility, transparency, accountability, and respect for families and community values. Above all, I believe strong schools are built through a partnership between parents, educators, and the community. I am running to ensure Menomonee Falls schools remain places where students feel supported, challenged, and inspired to reach their full potential.
