Education: Bachelor's in Accounting from Western Washington University
Occupation: Certified Public Accountant, specializing in auditing and forensics
Statement:

It has been my honor to serve Tahoma for four years as an elected director. I am passionate about providing every student an opportunity to grow and succeed in a safe and inclusive environment. As a parent, I know firsthand that each student has unique resource needs and advocacy is critical to their success. I will bring experience, leadership, and collaboration from my 17 years as a parent of Tahoma students and my 23 years as a Certified Public Accountant.

 

Tahoma has much to be proud of and students continue to shine. I will continue to help students reach their full potential, strike a balance between student achievement and growth, and partner with our community to establish a sustainable budget (using my skills as a CPA). I commit to continue representing the community and facing challenges with transparency and collaboration in service of these goals. Thank you for your support!

Occupation: Manager specializing in improving processes and helping teams excel
Statement:

My family and I love living in Maple Valley and have had positive interactions with each of our children’s teachers and schools. We live in a good school district but there is definitely room for improvement. After speaking with many in the community and reviewing data on our school district, I see two areas in need of change. Namely, academics and safety.

 

Did you know approximately 40% of Tahoma School District students are failing to meet grade level standards? Did you know each of our schools have safety concerns identified by a recent audit? Tahoma has good teachers, bright students, and engaged parents so with proper leadership we can turn these problems around. We need a school board that will be transparent with our shortcomings and help all students excel academically in a safe environment. We can do better and together we can take this district from good to great!
