Eanes parent (2x) and practicing Texas attorney with 20+ years in governance, budgeting, contracts, and oversight, ready to raise the bar on board decisions and deliver better outcomes for students.
Teachers are the heart of Eanes ISD and key to better outcomes. I’ll advocate for competitive salaries to keep us strong despite stagnant state funding and budget pressures. I’ll support meaningful professional development, mentoring, and clear communication. By seeking teachers’ input, board decisions will reflect classroom realities and help great educators stay and thrive.
Better student outcomes start with exceptional teaching. I’ll back high-quality instruction and programs that prepare students for college and careers. I’ll prioritize targeted interventions, strong special ed and 504 services, and real support for student well-being by listening to students/families. Leveraging data and proper metrics, we can make smarter decisions to help every learner succeed.
Student safety depends on careful, consistent decisions. I support rigorous background checks and ongoing training in crisis response, mental health awareness, de-escalation, and active-threat protocols. Learning requires a feeling of safety, so the district must communicate clearly, act promptly, maintain strong oversight, and ensure fair, timely investigations to build family/teacher confidence.
With budget shortfalls from stagnant funding, enrollment declines, and rising costs, we need decisions that protect students. I’ll prioritize classrooms by safeguarding core teaching roles and essential programs, including special ed and needed services. Before deeper cuts, I’ll pursue revenue options and cost efficiencies and insist financial choices be transparent and tied to student outcomes.

Teacher support must be a priority to prevent burnout and strengthen student-teacher collaboration. We must clearly communicate Eanes ISD's excellence to attract talented educators, mentor new teachers, and invest in their growth and leadership. I want to build a collaborative, empowering culture where teaching is innovative, flexible, and supported.
Protect Teachers pay!
Balance rigor with well-being. In K–5, focus on social-emotional growth and executive skills. In upper grades, independent learning in collaborative, creative schools where good decisions are rewarded. Move special education from reactive to proactive through early screening and partnerships like Stanford University’s embedded clinic model, shift IEPs toward personalization, and expand Pre-K
Trained annually for 12 years as a girl scout leader and as a physician I firmly believe in mandatory reporting and training. Policy expression where zero tolerance standards is practiced.
We need clear, specific communicative policy and procedures where anonymous feedback loops are set to prevent confusion and silence.
We implement integrated digital tools to support these policies.
Keep budget reductions as far from classrooms as possible. Supporting students and teachers so they can thrive must be a top priority for the district.We need to generate additional revenue, through summer enrichment programs and adult community classes, giving teachers a chance to earn supplemental income. We make strategic budget reductions that do not compromise what makes Eanes special
My top qualification is that I know that Christ is a complete and utter fraud [Portion of response removed; does not meet criteria].
Say something like "Howdy, would you like to come to EISD and teach that Christianity is one of the greatest frauds in world history and that Christ is dead?" Christians support violent child molesters for the presidency and then they tell you that you can't have an abortion [Portion of response removed; does not meet criteria]. Is that the dumbest thing ever? Students at Eanes need to know that Jesus is Dead.
You tell the students: y'all just need to study harder. [Portion of response removed; does not meet criteria.] Sadly the Media Morons and the academics at the colleges forgot to tell you that but we are going to take down the Pedos this time as we recognize that Christ is one of the greatest frauds.

Student lunches should be a very high quality food. We should have cooking classes [Portion of response removed; does not meet criteria]. Because all he wants to eat is pizza, grape juice and hot dogs which will cause our kids to die early in life. Salmon, broccoli and leafy greens like spinach should be on the menu often as we recognize that Christ is a fraud.
