ENROLLMENT AND DATA MANAGER

Who I am as a teacher:

  • I truly believe the type of education ISM provides will inspire and guide kids throughout their school career and their lives.  Having been here 17 years and through all 3 of my children going K to 8th grade I’ve seen it in action with many of our graduates and my own kids.

  • I strive to appreciate all of the unique gifts our staff and students offer the community and learn from each of them.

  • I want our students to feel safe and listened to at ISM and to learn to communicate and solve conflicts with anyone they come in contact with.

  • I really feel like a smile goes a long way to making a connection and laughter with others extends that even further

  • I love my family and the family I’ve chosen, known as my “pal-atives”.  

  • I love the ocean and walking on the beach with my dog, Ruby.  Binge watching the tv shows my adult kids want to watch is another pleasure, more because I’m doing it with them, then anything else. Reading is one of my treasured “getting away from it all” activities and, some day, traveling again will be a joy for me!
