We’ve made bold, equity-driven decisions like expanding pre-K and detracking, and now we must stay laser-focused on ensuring those investments deliver joyful, rigorous learning experiences for all students.
Our courageous move to detrack classrooms was an essential step toward equity. Now, we must ensure those classrooms are responsive to student needs.
We’ve doubled the size of our pre-K program—because early learning significantly changes outcomes. We must make sure that investment delivers for our youngest learners, especially those from historically marginalized groups.
We strive for both academic excellence and equity. When we do this well, Shaker becomes a model for what public education should be.

From passing the largest capital campaign in district history to holding the district accountable through KPIs, I bring the experience and focus to ensure that plans are implemented with fidelity—on time, on budget, and with students at the center.
Having led the passage of the largest capital campaign in our district’s history, and with construction beginning at Woodbury, I will continue to ensure our projects are delivered responsibly, sustainably, and transparently.
As board president, I championed the use of KPIs to measure what matters. I’ll continue this work, as implementation isn’t just about good ideas—it’s about following through.
I believe in working in partnership—with the city, the library, and families—to ensure every Shaker student has what they need to thrive.

From crafting a community-informed strategic plan to passing the operating levy this fall, I am committed to ensuring our resources align with our values so we can keep delivering on the promise of public education in Shaker.
I will lead the development of a new strategic plan that sets clear priorities and aligns our budget with what our students and community say matters most.
State-level policies deeply affect our schools. I stay engaged and advocate to protect what makes Shaker strong.
This fall’s operating levy is about maintaining great schools. I’ll work to ensure it’s built on trust, transparency, and a clear vision for what’s next.

Let’s finish what we started.
