I am honored to serve the Gulledge community as principal because of the longstanding tradition of excellence established by the students, staff, and families. Having been part of the inaugural Gulledge teaching staff and later returning as an assistant principal, my Gulledge roots run deep. I believe fostering strong and trusting relationships with our families is essential to the continued success of our students and the future.  Family engagement within an inclusive school community is the key to high levels of academic excellence. I am passionate about providing each child with an equitable growth experience academically, socially, and emotionally.  Outside of school, I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends, being outdoors, crafting, reading, and traveling.
