I first joined Articulation as its Client Services Coordinator and first employee in 2015 before assuming my current role as Client Services Director. It’s a position my career and life experience prepared me for in spades.

After graduating from the Ohio State University in 1986 with a degree in Public Relations and Advertising, I joined The Columbus Dispatch Marketing Department, where I worked for 11 years before resigning to raise my daughter and son. And while I resigned, I didn’t really leave but became a consultant organizing The Dispatch Spelling Bee and Scholar-Athlete Program. The Dispatch eventually cut funding for these programs, allowing me to I throw myself into my children’s school-related activities.

My children’s education and experience led me to become a passionate advocate of girls in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and to ensure that all students have a positive educational experience.

My husband and I recently became empty nesters, with the exception of three very needy cats, and we are looking forward to seeing where our kids land in the next few years.
