Summary

I am a veteran educator with over 26 years of teaching experience. My current position is quite unique, as I am the assistant principal, but I also teach grades 1-6 in a one-room school. This role has tapped into my abilities to be flexible, but firm, multitask, learn on my feet, and adapt. It has been both challenging and rewarding. Much of my career has necessitated these skills to gain success. I am ready for a new challenge, and I look forward to putting my skills to use.
