For nearly 20 years, I have owned and operated a small manufacturing pallet company. Running a business has given me firsthand experience managing finances, budgets, employees, operations, and the many responsibilities that come with making thoughtful decisions and being accountable for the results.
My commitment to our schools and students goes beyond my professional experience.

I believe we should continue supporting those standards while strengthening efforts to attract talented teachers to our district. ACS already does a great job participating in career fairs at universities and building relation

The early years of a child's education play a critical role in shaping both academic learning and positive behaviors that support future success in the classroom.
I believe Pre-K provides students with a strong foundation by helping them develop early literacy, social, and problem-solving skills before they enter kindergarten. Just as importantly, these programs can help identify children who may need additional academic, developmental, or special education support. Early intervention allows schools and families to work together to provide services that can make a significant differ
