With over 16 years in education, I've been at the forefront of cultivating cultures of excellence, inclusivity, and innovation. My journey began in Birmingham Public Schools. I served there as a teacher and instructional coach to an athletic director and assistant principal at the elementary and middle school levels.

During my tenure at Grosse Pointe Public School System (GPPSS), I've held the positions of Principal at Mason Elementary School and Deputy Superintendent for Educational Services. I've consistently focused on inspiring individuals from diverse backgrounds through effective communication, transparent thinking, and challenging the status quo.

My educational journey includes a Doctor of Education in Organizational Leadership from Oakland University, an Education Specialist in Leadership from Oakland University, a Master of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction from Marygrove College, and a Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education from Eastern Michigan University.

As the Deputy Superintendent for Educational Services at Grosse Pointe Public School System, I consistently cultivate environments that create a meaningful and relevant academic experience for all learners. My unwavering commitment to making decisions rooted in what is best for students has been a driving force in my career.
