Our Principals

I am very excited to be returning to Global Arts Plus as the assistant principal of the Upper Campus! I have worked in Saint Paul Public Schools in several capacities over the last 25 years. I started in SPPS as a Business/CTE high school teacher and after teaching for 13 years, I began coaching for school improvement as a specialist for secondary schools, PK-8 buildings, and Montessori elementary schools. In addition to my K-12 Principal licensure, I hold licensure in reading, business/marketing/CTE, and K-8 computers/keyboarding. I completed my Bachelor's Degree at Mankato State University and my Master's in Literacy Education at St. Mary's University of Minnesota, Winona.

I live in the North End of St. Paul with my significant other, Jason. We have been together for 11 years! Jason was a chef, so obviously we are into local food opportunities, food trucks, farmers markets, and supporting neighborhood small businesses. When we have the time we like to travel, especially short trips to Minnesota small towns to enjoy local culture, fish, and visit family.

I look forward to working with students, families, and staff to become part of the community and culture at Global Arts Plus.
