About Me
I am a former mathematics teacher and extremely proud to be a member of the Kearsarge team. I began working at Kearsarge Regional High School in 2014 as an Assistant Principal. Every day, as I interact with our students and fantastic teaching staff I continue to be grateful to be employed with a school and district that is committed to its staff and students through the pursuit of excellence in teaching and learning. Kearsarge embraces the full student by providing opportunities for students to grow outside of the classroom. I wouldn't want to be anywhere else!
I started my career in education teaching mathematics at Billerica High School in 2002. Prior to entering education, I held sales positions for both a recruiting and a reprographics company in Boston, MA. Before accepting the position at Kearsarge, I worked at John Stark High School.
I have two children and a husband that I enjoy spending time with, doing things such as cooking and skiing.
