I am thrilled to serve The Lang School's vibrant learning community as Director for Admissions & Strategic Initiatives; I am inspired each day by its students, families and colleagues alike. Prior to coming to The Lang School, I made the Little Red School House & Elisabeth Irwin High School (LREI) my home for almost 20 years where I served as the Director of Learning & Innovation and as Middle School principal. A lifelong learner, I began my formal adult life in schools as a teacher of physics, chemistry, English and an experiential business simulation class in the public schools where I also worked as a school administrator and technology coordinator. For the ten years prior to my work at LREI, I was a co-founder and co-director of a progressive K-12 public charter school where I currently still serve as a board member. When not immersed in admissions efforts at The Lang School, I enjoy spending time with my family and completing sundry home repair/tinkering projects. I am an avid soccer player and skier and wish I had more time to play the guitar and bass.
