Fortunately, I’ve had many experiences throughout my career in and out of education. I have taught grades K through 6 including special education and/or worked with teachers as a colleague, program coordinator or as a literacy coach. At one time I left the teaching profession and was a coordinator and grant writer working with various county agencies that dealt with families and children. Eventually, I returned to education as a program administrator in a variety of areas such as Title 1, Gifted and Talented and Special Needs Preschool. My strengths include program planning, analyzing data, phonics and reading instruction. I look forward to working with you.
