Mom has a big heart and she goes the extra mile to help her students get to the finish line. My high school English teacher at Graham also was a major influence. She was the type of teacher who built relationships with her students, made learning fun, and helped bring out the best.
Still, I did not begin teaching. As a 2000 graduate of Graham High School, I was either going to be a teacher or go into marketing and sales. I earned a degree in marketing, but I quickly found that was not what I wanted to do. I began to substitute teach and then began to teach in Urbana City Schools, where I dedicated myself to teaching 1st and 3rd grade students. I wanted to teach 3rd grade because that was a testing grade and I wanted to prove that they could succeed at high levels. I found there that if you cared, students would walk through a brick wall for you. It is the most important lesson that I carried on with me as I transitioned into administration. I was fortunate to join Graham Elementary as the Assistant Principal, a role I held for three years. Later, I assumed the position of Principal at Graham Middle School for an additional two years before moving into central administration. Currently, I am honored to serve as the Superintendent of Graham Local Schools, a role I have held with pride for the past two years. |
