ABOUT ME

Putting My Experience
to Work for Frederick County!

For over 15 years, I have served as an educational leader in and out of the classroom. During my tenure as a Science Educator with FCPS, I pioneered the county’s participation in the Science Olympiad program. I had the privilege of leading a host of students to recognition as state and national award winners. Later, I became the Science Olympiad Director for Frederick County, where I supported and trained teachers, provided rigorous opportunities for growth to students and brought national prominence to FCPS. During my time in administration with FCPS Central Office, I served as the first Science and Math Teacher Specialist for the Highly Able Learner (HAL) program, within the Office of Advanced Academics. Traveling across the county, I offered training and support to educators, helping them ensure the continued success of our gifted learners. Additionally, while working for FCPS I was selected as the Lions Club Co-Teacher of the Year and honored as the Frederick County Character Counts Award Winner for 2008.

In my time with the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, I served as Assistant Director of the Mathematics, Engineering, and Science Achievement (MESA) program. I developed curriculum and programs that advanced opportunities for students in Maryland and the nation, earning awards of distinction for innovation and service. Currently, I facilitate student growth in the classroom, teaching Computer Science. My position connects me directly to what students and teachers face on a daily basis. This unique perspective will inform my decision making and ensure that I remain relevant. As a member of the Board of Education, I will not fail in putting all of my experience to work for the students, parents and educators of Frederick County!
