I moved to Perrysburg in 2019 and have a daughter who attends PHS. Prior to moving to Perrysburg I served on Genoa Area Local Schools Board of Education for over 11 years. I have dealt with multiple issues including levies, bonds issues, Ohio Improvement Process, Special Education audits, construction of a new school, budget cuts, navigating unfunded mandates, school report card changes, contract
negotiations for both certified and classified employees, and hiring of a superintendent and administrators. During my time on the Board I have served on Wellness, Curriculum, Maintenance, Construction, Finance, and as a Penta and OSBA liaison. I am running for school board because I see a need for someone with Board experience to lead the Perrysburg district through the current and future growth. Through volunteering in schools and communities I understand the importance of talking directly to students, teachers, parents, administrators, and the taxpayers. There is a real need for someone on the Perrysburg School Board to ask the tough questions, make common sense decisions, and clearly communicate with the public. My Core Philosophies:
*Fiscally responsible with your taxes.
* Planning for the future of our students, facilities, and finances.
*Back to basics to build a solid education foundation.
*Keeping kids in school.
