Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a parent of two small children passionate about earning the chance to be a voice for Ward 11 families, teachers, and other community members on the school committee. If elected, I promise exceptional attendance and transparent voting.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Parent committed to prioritizing student success
• Experienced in HR management, able to assist in supporting Dr. Goldhardt and the employees of the school district.
• Advocate for a fair and effective budget for our schools within the city tax cap

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I KNOW I can make a difference. I am experienced in handling the current challenges facing our teachers that are on the radar for every board member and candidate, my education and professional experience are rooted in Human Resource Management.

"For New Hampshire teachers, the state ranks second-worst overall in the country for the education profession. Our state also finished dead last in opportunity/competition and 12th in academic/work environment."

These are HR issues that can't be addressed in contract negotiations, improvements in opportunity and work environment come from knowledge on how to make sure that Superintendent Goldhardt is empowered to listen to teachers and has a BOSC ready to support change management to retain the talent that makes the difference for our students daily.

Note: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses. Any edits made by Ballotpedia will be clearly marked with [brackets] for the public. If the candidate disagrees with an edit, he or she may request the full removal of the survey response from Ballotpedia.org. Ballotpedia does not edit or correct typographical errors unless the candidate's campaign requests it.
