I am so proud to be a part of the Mulvane School District and community. During my time here, I have served as a 3rd-grade teacher, an elementary principal, and now, the Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services and Special Education Director.

I grew up in Canton, Kansas, as the youngest of three daughters. As long as I can remember, I wanted to be a teacher, so it was only natural that upon completing high school I attended Emporia State University in pursuit of a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. My first job was serving as a third-grade teacher at Mulvane Grade School. While in that position, I received my Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction, as well as a Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership, both from Wichita State University. After nine years in the classroom, I began my administrative career with the El Dorado School District as an elementary assistant principal and early childhood and family engagement coordinator. In 2018, I returned to the Mulvane Grade School, this time as their building principal. While serving in this role, I earned my Educational Administration District-Level Licensure and became the Assistant Superintendent in 2022. 

My husband and I have been married for 20 years. He is a veteran of the United States Marine Corps and currently works for Textron Aviation. We have two children. Our son is an 11th grader at MHS, and our daughter is an 8th grader at MMS. They keep us extremely busy, running to and from practices, games, and events. I enjoy reading, cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs, and of course, spending time with family and friends.
