EXPERIENCE YOU CAN COUNT ON

I am running for the KLSD Board of Education because I have always been more of a doer than a talker. Parents, faculty, staff and students have been reaching out to me with issues they are experiencing and I want to do something about it.

Below is a quick glance at what I have been doing over the past 63 years. I have a wide variety of experiences that constitute my background, which when looking back, I think unknowingly and unwittingly have made me perfectly suited to be a productive and influential leader on the Board of Education. I’ll let you decide.
