A few years ago, an eager young teacher traveled from northeast Iowa to Lakewood, Colorado to begin a career as a math teacher and coach. Little did I know that over 20 years later, I would have the privilege of leading the amazing school where my career began. As a classroom teacher, athletic coach, club sponsor, and volunteer, I have had the pleasure of learning from and with our amazing, diverse students and families while participating in the larger Lakewood Community. It is with great pride that I lead our amazing school. Thank you for support for our students, teachers, staff, and me. As you may have heard: just like each and every day, it is a great day to be a Lakewood Tiger! Rawr!
