I am ecstatic to serve as the new Principal/Instructional Leader of Cherokee Elementary School. I’m very passionate about education and I look forward to collaborating with you to provide our students with an engaging, enjoyable, and empowering educational school experience. I believe with your support, together we can make sure your child’s social, emotional, and academic needs are met.

I am a CES Alumna and a graduate of Cherokee High School, and ultimately started my teaching career at Cherokee High School as a Special Education Teacher and continued at CES as a Special Education teacher before accepting the role as Principal. I have obtained my B.S. in Health & Sports Fitness Management, B.S. in Physical Education, M.A. in Special Education, ED.S., and Instructional Leadership Certification. I reside in Cherokee and I’m actively involved in the community. Home Sweet Home!

Thank you for the opportunity to serve your families in this role! Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas you would like to share.
