What makes you the most qualified candidate for this position?

I am a graduate of Advance Schools, Class of 98. I have kids currently enrolled in the school from preschool, elementary, Jr. high and high school levels. So I personally have a stake at this time in all levels of the school district.

What do you see as the opportunities and challenges in the district?

I will have the opportunity to serve the people of our school district. To be a positive roll model for my own and the community's youth. I feel there will not be any challenges that we cannot over come, with unity as a board and community.

How will you communicate your work to your constituents?

By being a active member of our community. Being approachable, open, and up front with parents issues and concerns.

What are the factors on which you will base your decisions as a school board member?

It will be based on what will benefit the kids most. At all levels of their education.
