What issue are you most looking forward to working on as a Governing Board member?
I am most looking forward to advancing equity in education by working to ensure that all educators are supported and all students—regardless of their background or zip code—have access to the resources they need to succeed. I am committed to addressing systemic barriers and shaping policies that foster fairness and opportunity for all.
What is your favorite thing about being an educator?
My favorite part of being an educator is helping students succeed and being a strong advocate for them—no matter their background or challenges.
Outside of the classroom, what’s something you like to do?
I love to spend uninterrupted quality time with my family, and I love spoiling my grandkids and my great grandson.
How have you worked in union to overcome a professional challenge?
Through the union, I’ve grown into a stronger advocate and leader. Overcoming the challenge of finding my voice, I’ve learned to speak with purpose and confidence—standing in solidarity with educators, ESPs, and families to fight for the respect, resources, and support our schools and students deserve.
