I believe the best school leaders both aspire to and inspire learning. Leadership sets the direction for teachers, students, and entire school communities—and I am here to strengthen that journey.

Partnering with School Leaders

I collaborate with administrators to:

1. Support teachers’ growth through coaching and development.

2. Advance student achievement in math, reading, social studies and science.

3. Foster thriving school communities built on collaboration, trust, and high expectations.

Proven Leadership in Action

My work as a principal has demonstrated the power of strong, focused leadership. During my tenure as Principal and as Director of Curriculum and Student Services, I worked with faculty to:

• Advanced student proficiency across mathematics, reading, and science.

• Guide schools to measurable success and sustainable improvement.

Recognized Success

Under my leadership, schools have earned recognition for:

• Most Growth in Mathematics – measurable and sustained student progress.

• Supportive Environment – where students and teachers feel valued and engaged.

• Ambitious Instruction – setting high standards and achieving strong outcomes.

• Governor’s Blue Ribbon Award (State of Illinois)

• CAPE Blue Ribbon Award (Council for American Private Education)

• National Blue Ribbon Award* (*Program terminated just prior to announcement from the Secretary of Education.)

TIP Learning’s Commitment to Administrators

As a former prinicpal, I know effective leadership transforms schools. I partner with administrators to provide tailored strategies, professional insights, and ongoing support that build cultures of success—where every student has the opportunity to thrive.
