  Education: MBA, MA Stanford University.

  I want to help our community join together to create an exceptional place for our children to learn and grow. My business skills--14+ years as a management consultant, helping organizations better manage their employees--and background as a classroom teacher and administrator will make a positive difference in students' lives.

  Our community needs a Board that is independent--not unduly influenced by the Superintendent or the teacher's union. I bring that independence to the job. I am committed to: Listening to the customers--teachers, parents, and students; Leading with vision by setting clear, challenging goals; defining standards of excellence in teaching, management and student achievement; measuring performance and demanding accountability; and Leveraging every resource.

  Member of planning team, Skyline; two terms Site Council (one as Chair), School Improvement Committees; District's budget advisory, 1999. Active church member. Manage a consulting practice for Milliman USA, Seattle.
