Greetings,

It is with great enthusiasm that I embrace the opportunity to be part of the distinguished Westside High School community for the upcoming academic year. As a certified educator in the fields of Special Education, Educational Leadership, and ESOL in the state of Georgia, I am proud to enter my 26th year in this rewarding profession.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with students at both the middle and high school levels, fostering inclusive learning environments that support academic growth and personal development. My passion lies in working with children, and I find immense joy in witnessing their progress as they strive to reach their full potential.

I hold a Master’s degree in science and a Specialist Degree in Educational Leadership, which have deepened my understanding and enhanced my ability to effectively support students, families, and colleagues alike.

As we begin this new academic year, I look forward to contributing my experience, leadership, and commitment to student success. Together, let us cultivate a positive and enriching environment where every student can thrive.

Here’s to an outstanding and successful school year ahead!
