Leadership
I am excited to lead as an assistant principal at Northfield High School in partnership with students, teachers, and the community. I look forward to being on a dynamic team focused on creating an inclusive and vibrant high school experience for students. I have an undergraduate degree in English Education from Northern Arizona University, and completed my Master’s with the University of Denver in 2021. I taught secondary literacy for 14 years, and have served as a school leader for nearly 10 years in a wide range of schools, including 6th grade through 12th grade in Arizona, California, and Colorado. I have also served schools as a leader of district-wide professional learning supports for teacher leaders. My teaching and leading experiences have shaped my core belief that school leaders must balance both instructional excellence and a strong school culture in service of equitable outcomes for students. My experiences as a parent have taught me that strong partnerships with families must focus on meaningful interactions. This is essential in our pursuit to ensure equitable access to a quality education for all students. After a long week at work, I like to recharge with my family, including my child, Amelie, and husband, Brett. We spend summertime at our neighborhood pools and like to hike, as well as ski in winter. I also love to sew and try to make as much of my wardrobe as possible. I have found this creative outlet to be both invigorating and inspiring.
