With 15 years in public education, I bring firsthand experiences with the challenges, relationships, and opportunities that shape our schools.  

I live, teach, and lead through my core values of Joy, Love, and Community, and will center these in my ethical framework as equitably and transparently as possible in board membership decisions.  

I have years of experience partnering with others to implement School Board policies that directly impact the daily learning and living experiences of students, staff, and families in our schools.  

I believe responsible stewardship of public resources includes long-range planning to support both current and future needs of our students and community.

Language matters.  

I deeply respect our Government-to-Government responsibilities and will ensure that our partnerships with The Suquamish Tribe (Point Elliott Treaty) and The Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe (Point No Point Treaty) are honored and prioritized–especially in upholding educational sovereignty and treaty rights. 

I support school programs that prioritize early learning with an emphasis on strong foundational skills, learning through play, creativity, nature, and the arts, while ensuring collaborative student, family, and neighborhood voices shape community and culturally-responsive schools.

Every student deserves a joyful, equitable education–and I’m ready to serve with heart, integrity, and a collaborative spirit.
