I received my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education from Youngstown State University and my Master's degrees from George Mason University in Curriculum and Instruction and Educational Leadership.

I began my career with Loudoun County Public Schools in 1998 and taught fifth grade at Sugarland Elementary School in Sterling, VA. I transferred to Mill Run Elementary in Broadlands, VA during their inaugural year in 2000 and continued teaching fifth grade. While working at Mill Run Elementary, I served as the instructional facilitator of technology, dean, and assistant principal. I was appointed principal at Hillside Elementary on July 1, 2012 and served in that role until June 30, 2016. My position at Seldens Landing began on July 1, 2016.
