She is dedicated to the work involved in improving the quality of an early childhood system, where young children can prosper and families are engaged in their child’s educational experience.

Personal Statement

Knowing that each child is receiving what they need throughout their day to feel secure, grow, and learn is very important. Taking the time to understand what a student needs and how to meet those needs can make all the difference.
