It is my heart’s desire to support our Educators and provide opportunities that equip and empower our Scholars to respect their education as the next generation of leaders in our community. ‘One day at a time’, I am committed in service to our Golden Bear family!

As the Assistant Principal of East Middle School, I am thrilled to collaborate with our team of educators to help our scholars become productive, global citizens. By working together with our staff, students, families, and community, I believe we can achieve greatness.
For over 20 years, I’ve proudly served the Youngstown community as an educator. As a graduate of Youngstown State University, my first teaching experience was with Youngstown City Schools. From the start, I have been a dedicated advocate for our scholars, schools, and community. This community has captured my heart and inspired me to stay committed to shaping the future of Youngstown.
At East Middle School, my goal is to foster a learning environment where students can truly thrive. I want every student to feel welcome, valued, and safe as they enter our doors each morning. I am excited to work with all members of our EMS community to ensure the success of every scholar. Together, we can achieve anything!
