Summary
A passionate educator who strives to help others discover their purpose so they can resiliently pursue and accomplish greatness. I value leading with equity by setting clear expectations for staff and students and supporting their needs, because I only feel successful when those around me are achieving excellence. I value diagnosing problems and finding solutions so that all students grow and can be accomplished in school, life outside of school, and in their future.
