I am a proud graduate of Renton High School and have greatly benefited from my experiences of being a part of the beloved community at Renton High. Currently, I serve as a school administrator in the Seattle School District and have previously served as an elementary, middle, and high school teacher in the Oakland Unified School District. I am the parent of two children currently attending elementary and middle school in the Renton School District.

I am committed to building a transformational relationship between the community of District 4 and the school board who serves them. In July, I attended Nia Fest in Skyway Park and asked community members what their dreams are for their children and how the Renton School District can support their dreams.

Based on their feedback I will advocate for greater transparency in how board decisions are made, more inclusion of community voice in decisions regarding our children, expanded school programing to meet the interests of our children and bringing more joy to our children’s educational experience. I will continue to look for ways to uplift the voice and values of the community and ensure they are represented in our schools.
