It is a privilege to serve as principal of Escondido High School. After more than 30 years of experience in education, as a science teacher, assessment specialist, assistant principal and principal, I continue to be inspired and motivated by our youth. My own experiences learning from outstanding high school teachers led me to the university where I earned both my BA and MS in Biology, as well as my teaching credential. I am committed to supporting an environment at Escondido High School that mirrors my own good fortune, where each student can find his/her own niche and source of inspiration. My husband and daughter share my love for learning and both work in another school district. We all love the outdoors — hiking, boating, gardening and playing with our dogs. I am proud to be a Cougar — Loyal, Strong and True!
