Why are you running for the board:

I am running for the Greece School Board because I love this community! As an alumni of Greece Olympia High School with a child now in that same school, I have a duty to ensure my child has the best education, resources, well-being, and experience during her years in Greece Central Schools. This is my way of giving back to the community that raised me into the independent individual I am today. I want to bring that same passion, drive, and energy to bring proactive solutions that will improve the district and lead to better outcomes for all. If you are ready new ideas that put safety first, resources, solutions, unity and trust please consider me for your vote on May 21st.
