I was born and raised in Penn Manor School District. I graduated in 1991. I strongly believe in public education and support Penn Manor Schools. My husband and I have two children, Nolan (class of 2019) and Kaitlyn (class of 2020).My children and I have received an excellent education from Penn Manor. I have served Penn Manor as a volunteer throughout my children's education journey. It would be my honor to continue to serve the Penn Manor School District Community as a member of the School Board. 

I began my career as a School Counselor in 2007. I earned my bachelor's in 1995 and my Masters of Education in 2007 from Millersville University. I earned my Doctorate of Education in Counseling Psychology in 2014. Prior to being a School Counselor, I served the County of Lancaster as a Juvenile Probation Officer and as an Adult Probation and Parole Officer.

Volunteer service is important to me. I served Penn Manor as a parent volunteer through the Marching Band and the Youth Soccer Program. In the Marching band program, I was Band Booster President, Vice-President, banquet co-chair, chair for the Pink-Out Fundraiser, and on truck crew. I volunteered for my daughter's dance team for 10 years: designing, building, and coordinating props. I currently serve as a volunteer for Fulton Theater.
