As a dedicated Education Specialist on the Title I Parent & Family Engagement Statewide Initiative, I bring a wealth of expertise in compliance with the parent and family engagement requirements outlined in ESSA 1116, as well as extensive experience in writing, editing, and revising. As part of my role, I have had the privilege of contributing to the development of impactful documents and resources that have helped educators across the state improve their craft. Additionally, I have presented at multiple events and workshops, sharing my knowledge and insights with other education professionals. When I'm not working to elevate parent and family engagement in education, I am a proud wife to a teacher and coach, and mother to two vibrant children, aged 10 and 7. Together, we love to explore the great outdoors and ride dirt bikes. My past teaching and coaching experience has taught me the value of teamwork, utilizing each member's strengths, and employing multiple motivational techniques to achieve a shared goal.
