Summary

I have been blessed to have served five different Kansas school districts as a teacher, coach, or administrator. Rising to an opportunity to work as a superintendent for ten years, I truly enjoyed facilitating district-wide academic and operational initiatives. The boards of education I have work closely with should be commended for their desire to improve student outcomes. We were very intentional about fostering positive relationships with all stakeholders throughout the school communities.
