- Leadership Experiences and Accomplishments
 - 
Since beginning teaching in 1966, I have been blessed to have had a wide variety of opportunities from 1st grade through community college both in teaching and administration.
 - Why Do I Want to Serve on the Lompoc Unified School District Board of Education?
 - 
"I know I can achieve, if you will just believe, in me."  My first year as principal at Maple, I asked the students to write what they wanted from their education and from Maple.  This was one of the quotes.  What a powerful statement and how wise our children.
