Background
I began my career teaching grade 5 ELA at EAst. I looped with my scholars and ended up teaching 6, 7, 8 grade ELA. Next, I became the ELA Coach at East; I remained in this role for two years before moving on to open Propel Hazelwood as acting Assistant Principal and Instructional Coach. I obtained my principal certification and became Principal at Propel East in the Fall of 2016.
I am #PropelProud because…
Propel believes in allowing us to do “whatever it takes” to meet the needs of our scholars, families, and community. I believe in the mission and am where I belong with Propel Schools.
When I am not working I enjoy…
anything outdoors (running, hiking, kayaking) and reading.
