I am a lifelong learner. I love school and therefore I never left. As the Director of Academic Services, I enjoy watching students develop a sense of themselves as learners. This is the most rewarding part of my job. Beaver students have the chance to reflect upon their growth, advocate for themselves, and build upon their areas of strength. Beaver is constantly growing, shifting, and evolving…students are the designers and creators. As an educator, the energy and magic that evolves from this philosophy have kept me feeling like it is day one for the last 30 years.
