As a native of Susanville, I attended McKinley Elementary School and Diamond View School as a child. Now I am honored to serve on the Susanville School District Board of Trustees. Our three children all attend school in the District. My wife and I are actively involved in the PTA and see great value in active and engaged parents and communities. I serve as a Pastor in the community and as a Program Manager for the Lassen County Office of Education. I am also a member of the Susanville Kiwanis Club and have served on various community and school-wide committees. I believe that the District provides a quality education to our students and I am commited to making sure that this continues.

I am mom to three children, current and previous students of Susanville School District, with my oldest now in high school. My husband and I established our truck and auto mechanic repair shop in 2011, where I manage the office. We have been blessed to be able to schedule time for extracurricular activities with our kids and volunteer with each organization. I love being able to volunteer in the classrooms and be an active parent with PTA activities and other school events. I have been blessed with the opportunity to serve on the board and to be apart in making sure our children continue getting the quality education they deserve.

I am a native of Susanville and attended McKinley Elementary School, Washington Elementary School and Diamond View School. My daughters also attended Lassen County Schools. I am recently retired from the Lassen County Office of Education where I was employed for 45 years. I served in several departments with the past 14 years as the Director of Business Services. My role was to help support student programs and local school districts so they could serve and support students. I was appointed to the Board in September 2022 to fill an open seat due to an insufficient number of candidates. I believe Susanville School District provides a quality education and a safe learning environment for students. I am honored to serve as a Board of Trustee for the Susanville School District, supporting educational growth and student achievement

My wife and I have lived in Susanville for 32 years, where I have been a genral dentist in private practice. I have two grown children who both attended the Susanville School District from Kindergarten through eighth grade. I feel the district enabled them to grow academically as well as socially. Susanville School District provided them with a solid foundation to succeed at Lassen High School and then in higher education. It is an honor to serve on the Susanville School District Board of Trustees, and my hope is to help our district continue to provide the education and environment that will help students continue to succeed and reach their utmost potential.
