A little about me….
- I am a proud DHS alumnus and am so happy to be working in my hometown. I am married and have two children that also graduated from DHS. We are a BULLDOG family!
- I have a wonderful counseling “teammate” named LaCrosse. He is a Facility Dog that has been trained by KSDS and loves to work at school.
- Education is in my DNA as both my parents, my sister, aunts, and grandparents were all teachers, counselors, and administrators. I am passionate about helping others and believe EDUCATION is the key to success!
