It is both a blessing and an honor to serve as the Principal of Spiritual & Community Life at San Clemente Christian School. My greatest passion is to ensure that every child understands that Jesus desires a deep, personal relationship with them. My mission is to create meaningful opportunities that deepen your child's understanding of who God is, strengthen their faith in Jesus, and inspire them to shine as a light in the world around them.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Studies with a concentration in Early Childhood Intervention. Additionally, I earned a Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, an Educational Specialist Teaching Credential for Moderate/Severe needs, and an English Learner Authorization from California State University, Long Beach. My teaching journey includes extensive experience in both general and special education within private and public schools. At SCCS, I had the privilege of teaching second grade for many years, which deepened my commitment to our school community.

My love for the Lord fuels my dedication to supporting students, families, and teachers, both locally and globally. I have been fortunate to travel to Africa, India, China, and South Korea, partnering with missionaries to impact lives for Jesus through education.

At SCCS, my heart is devoted to creating a Christ-centered environment where your child is loved, supported, and encouraged to strive for academic excellence. It is my prayer that each student grows into the person God has created them to be, surrounded by opportunities that foster their spiritual and academic development. I am excited to get to know your family and embark on this journey together throughout the year.
