In 2002, I enrolled my son, Benjamin, and daughter, Emily, with ERCLC. I joined the staff of ERCLC in 2004 as Administrative Assistant, and assumed the Business Manager position in 2005. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Rockford College, Rockford, Illinois. My work experience includes corporate office administration and human resources and hotel/resort administration and management. I also served as Assistant to the Director of the Four Corners Child Advocacy Center in Cortez, Colorado for three years, and operated a home-based business, Discovery Toys, for 10 years.

Our family lives in Three Rivers where I am leader of Emily’s Girl Scout Troop, serve on the Board of the Woodlake Tigersharks Recreational Swim Team and serve on the Board of the Three Rivers Players & Arts Center. Both Benjamin and Emily decided to return to traditional public school for high school. While I miss having them at ERCLC, I continue to be inspired and excited about the innovative and imaginative opportunities we offer students at our school.
