After moving to North Carolina, I took a few years off to be a mom. Then, one day, I was offered a job at the largest charter school in the state, where my children attended. I became a Program Coordinator and wore many hats, including assisting with schoolwide events, community events, purchasing, serving as the travel coordinator, and developing the lunch program. I was even a high school volleyball coach. We always did things in big and wonderful ways and utilized those with business backgrounds, pairing them with the very best the education field has to offer. Working in education changed my perspective on many things, and I developed more empathy and understanding than I could have ever imagined.

I had intended to stay only a short while at the school, but as I entered my 15th year, I decided it was time for a change and a new focus. I was eager when I found THM and couldn’t wait to be part of this amazing team, where I could continue to demonstrate and develop the skills I had learned from my past positions.

My belief is always to mentor and always be a student. Leave your ego at the door and combine your skills with others to reach your goals successfully and productively.
