Bio
I have been working with schools and families for over 15 years as a consultant, teacher, coach and school leader. My primary focus is on parent participation and cooperative school programs that engage the whole school community. I also have training as a preschool teacher in early childhood education. I have served in many leadership roles in school settings and more recently on the PDA Board of Directors. I am an experienced Think Tank planner and have experience planning and presenting at large conferences and events. I am passionate about sharing Positive Discipline with others and improving relationships for all. I live with my husband and 2 daughters in San Jose, California.
