For too long school has forced students into a setting that does not work for everyone. DMPS is changing the landscape of education to meet students’ needs. We are balancing high expectations with the academic and social/emotional needs of our learners in the Flex Studio!
I love working with the students and individualizing their learning pathways!
I love seeing all the support our teams do for our students.
I spent almost 11 years working at a DMPS middle school before having the opportunity to move to North in 2017. Working with students on this end of their k-12 educational career is incredibly inspiring. I know that every student has the ability to earn their high school diploma, they might just need a different route or an extra push to get there.
My passion comes from working with students who are labeled by the system as “at risk” or “high risk.” Being one of those students myself in high school, I attribute my successes to several individuals who refused to let me fall through the cracks. They saw something in me that pushed them to encourage me, and I’m excited to do the same. There’s nothing more rewarding than helping a student prove the system wrong when he or she is successful!

I care about helping students achieve their goals when they didn’t think they could themselves.

I enjoy the opportunity to work with kids that no one else can reach, “be who you needed when you were younger,” and cheering as obnoxiously loud as anyone when they walk across the stage at graduation.

I love connecting with and advocating for students who are trying to break through barriers and make positive life changes no matter how long it takes them.
