What’s something you like about your job?
My career has challenged me in ways I never expected, touched my heart profoundly, and allowed me to build deep connections with so many people, both colleagues and families, that I wouldn’t otherwise have had the honor of knowing. I see tremendous resilience and healing in our families, and I love that each of my team members works toward the same goal.
How has being an Association member been helpful to you?
I like that the VEA is a collection of professionals who have the common objective of promoting and improving education. Being a member makes me feel bonded with others as we advocate and share challenges and triumphs.
