Head of School at new K-8 contract school in Colorado. Hired and trained new employees. Established new protocols, observation, and evaluation strategies for the school. Previously, I was an Elementary principal of a high-achieving charter school. As principal, I opened the second and third campuses, interviewed and hired all homeroom teachers, supported and contributed to the academic excellence and overall mission of the school, while ensuring the goal of making decisions based on what is best for the students remains the primary focus of staff members. Prior to opening these two campuses, I was a curriculum specialist and teacher of grades 3-5. I also taught at another charter school in Colorado Springs before my time at my current school. My main achievements include forming positive relationships with students, parents, and other staff, and training teachers at all three campuses in the curriculum, and successful implementation of instructional techniques. I am passionate about inspiring others to achieve greatness, whether that be as a teacher, student, or community member. I believe all people are leaders and have had great success in recognizing leadership potential in my staff, and in developing that potential to the benefit of the staff and school as a whole. I naturally work to create a culture of community, teamwork, and positive influence. I'm motivated, hardworking, and passionate in my pursuits to influence others towards their greatest potential. In my community, I have previously volunteered at my local church and participated in groups that encourage positive discussions centered around growth and the help of others. I am dedicated to developing relationships with other leaders in my community while growing in my leadership skills. For the 2020 and half of 2021 years, I relocated to Nashville to be a full-time caretaker of my parents. While there, I also earned a Master of Organizational Leadership degree at Trevecca University. I am currently looking to use my training, curriculum development, and team-building skills outside the schools. I am eager to expand my knowledge and influence in either a non-profit or corporate environment.
