JOINED OXFORD COMMUNITY SCHOOLS
August 1995
I feel so fortunate to be part of Leonard Elementary School. I cannot imagine a better place to learn, play and grow. I have spent my entire career working for Oxford Community Schools. I have worked as a middle school teacher, a high school teacher, a coach, a high school administrator, and now, an elementary school principal.
I earned my bachelor degree in Math, Science and Economics from Eastern Michigan University where I was a member of the EMU varsity wrestling team. Involvement in athletics helped develop my love and passion for the field of education. I received my master degree in education administration from Wayne State University. I have four children: Macie, Brennan, Cali and Mylee. It is truly a blessing to have been their elementary school principal. It is also a blessing to work with such a caring and talented staff. I look forward to helping lead Leonard into the future as we create a world-class education today to shape tomorrow’s leaders!
