What do you enjoy most about working at Nevada State High School (NSHS)? I love seeing the students finally put the pieces of the NSHS lessons and curriculum together to create their personalized life paths.
How do you like to spend your free time? Working
What is your favorite place in the world? Wherever my family is
What is the last book you read? Permission to Screw Up by Kristen Hadeed
Which authors or books have influenced you the most? How Women Decide by Therese Huston. All of our students, especially our female students, should read this to identify and address restricting gender norms in our society and in their own personal biases.
Do you have any secret talents? Yes, I have a secret talent that would allow me to be a very good FBI interrogator.
What do you hope students will come away with after attending NSHS? I would like all students to have the skills and drive to realize their dreams.
