I have enjoyed working in education for 16 years. My educational background includes a B.S. in Elementary Education and a Master's in Reading with reading specialist certification for grades K-12 from Webster University. I am a recipient of the 2022  Phi Delta Kappa, Inc. Outstanding Educator Award.  I am currently working towards my EdS in School Administration at Lindenwood University.  Just like the weather, life has seasons that bring change. When life moves me into my next season, I hope to leave behind the legacy of a helper. I pray my gifts, talents, and resources have sown a seed of hope in others that will inspire them to let their light shine brighter and have a successful future.
