I am honored and excited to be part of this organization. Life can be challenging, and many of us face circumstances we never expected. If being involved with Courage Under Cancer can help make even one person’s journey a little easier, then I am grateful to contribute in any way I can.

I have lived in Arizona for most of my life and was raised in Scottsdale. Family is at the center of my life, I am the proud mom of three grown children, two daughters and a son, and an even prouder grandmother to three granddaughters and one grandson. They truly are the light of my life.

I have dedicated the past 25 years to the field of education, serving in roles ranging from teacher to administrator. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business, a Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction, and a second Master’s degree in Educational Leadership. Today, I work for an organization that helps individuals achieve their dream of becoming teachers and making a meaningful difference in the lives of children.
