“My primary thoughts are how I can best serve middle school administrators in helping them meet and reach their goals, especially in the area of professional development and student achievement. Serving as AAMSP President is truly an honor that I accept with great humility. It is my goal to serve our membership with dedication, decorum, and distinction.”
