I began working at Ridgeview Elementary in the summer of 2023. I attended Olathe Public Schools throughout my elementary, middle and high school years and am proud to serve in the community I call home. I hold a bachelor's, master's and doctoral degree from Baker University.

Inspired by incredible educators throughout my life, I chose this profession to make a positive impact and provide that same inspiration to others. I am passionate about working collaboratively with families and believe that strong partnerships help students thrive. I truly believe education is a powerful tool that opens doors to endless opportunities for our students — and I believe Olathe Public Schools is the best place for students to grow, learn and succeed.
