I am very excited to introduce myself as the new principal of Rashkis Elementary School. It is indeed an honor to have the opportunity to work with such an amazing, caring, and committed school community. I look forward to partnering with you as we continue our work at Rashkis to do what is best for ALL children so that they thrive in the present and in the future. All my school leadership experiences have been in Title I schools, where we successfully changed the narrative for so many students because of our unwavering commitment to the growth and achievement of ALL students.

I am a proud educator with 27 years of experience. I started my career in Guilford County as a classroom teacher and relocated to Raleigh and continued my classroom journey for 10 years. For the next 10, I was in instructional coaching positions in Wake and Durham counties. I then decided to return to my hometown of Winston-Salem as an Assistant Principal. For the last 2 years I served as an elementary principal.

Above all, I am eager to observe, listen, learn, and understand what makes Rashkis Elementary thrive.
