I joined the McIntosh Area Charter School family with vast experience and knowledge in education that I am excited to share with the students, staff, and community here at MAS. Go EAGLES!
Prior to my career in education, I was a successful Real Estate Broker in Georgia and was able to own a real estate development company with my husband and build a small community. As it had always been my lifelong dream to be in education, I decided to leave the world of real estate and follow my passions in education. I knew I wanted to be in administration, but also, with my knowledge gained from real estate through marketing, educating the community, and managing the business, I knew the importance of knowing the roles of the varying aspects of the education positions. I was dedicated to placing myself in a multitude of positions to gain an understanding firsthand of what my teachers and staff would experience prior to becoming their administrator.
I have proudly taught students in grades 1st through 6th in all subjects, including elective classes, MTSS school coordinator, CRT K-8 (Curriculum Specialist/Teacher Coach/Admin), and Testing coordinator. I have been involved in many schools, ranging in size from 300 students to almost 2000 students. I have opened two schools and piloted new models of teaching, including new collaborative style teachings, achieving increased state test scores. I strongly believe in maintaining communication with parents/guardians and students, coupled with differentiated instruction to meet the needs of the students, while using data to guide our pathways. Building partnerships with students, families, staff, and community members is a key element in our students’ success, and I am looking forward to being a part of the partnership this year and for years to come. Thank you for partnering with us to SOAR to new heights with your child’s education! Together, we can and will SUCCEED!
