I'm originally from Kansas and am a proud graduate of USD 232, where I attended school from kindergarten through high school. After earning my degree in Elementary Education from the University of Kansas, I spent nearly a decade living abroad, teaching elementary students and leading social impact initiatives focused on student wellbeing and global citizenship.Today, I live in New York City and serve as an Customer Success Lead at MEandMine, where I partner with schools across the country to support student mental health and wellbeing through proactive, data-informed practices. I'm passionate about helping educators create environments where every student feels seen, supported, and ready to learn.It's especially meaningful to be back in my home state representing MEandMine, and I'm excited to connect with fellow Kansas educators and share ideas for supporting the wellbeing of students and school communities.
