CURRENT TERM 2022-2026
As a Board member of the Beaumont Unified School District, working on behalf of students and the community has been a passion of mine. I have lived in Beaumont with my husband, Mike, who is a lifelong resident of Beaumont. We have two children, both of whom graduated from Beaumont High School.
Education is important to me, and so is being involved in our children's lives. I believe the two go hand in hand, so it's been important for me to take an active role in education. When our children were younger, I was involved as a PTA President, School Site Council Representative, classroom volunteer at Palm Elementary School, and a Boundary Committee and Superintendent Advisory Council member.
I earned my Associate in Science at Riverside City College before entering the workforce at the County of Riverside, where I stayed for fifteen years. It was then that my husband and I decided for me to stay home to devote our time to raising our children.
As a former Beaumont USD parent, I feel that I am sensitive to how the decisions of the Board and District administration impact students, families, and the community at large. I am keenly aware of the necessity for balancing student needs and fiscal solvency within the District. The foundation of the District has always been home, school, and community. As a parent and active community member, my role on the board allows me to bridge the gap between home, school, and community.
