I've been an elementary and middle school educator for 17 years. I recently earned my M.A. Ed. and Administrative Services Credential. I am passionate about creating a school climate/culture where students feel they are valued as members of a school family, and educators embrace their role in inspiring and empowering our young people to be curious, creative, collaborative problem solvers.

"The secret in education lies in respecting the student."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
