"I chose to become an educator so that I can help students reach their full potential and teach them the skills they need to accomplish their goals."

"I want every student to show significant growth. Data will show me the needs."

"I believe that music has the power to transform lives, especially in the elementary classroom."

"I became a teacher to empower students to be better learners, people, leaders, and friends. Whenever I am having a bad day, the only place I want to be is around my students, their positivity and outlook on life is inspiring and it helps me to keep going."

"My “Why” is promoting a positive climate where students can thrive. As a school administrator, I ask daily, “How can I make tomorrow better? How can I inspire future leaders?” I strive to ignite imagination, see no limits, and prepare them to be career ready."
