MEET THIS WEEK’S VALUED TEAM MEMBER

I’m grateful to serve as the Executive Assistant and Office Manager here at CESA 7, where every day brings new opportunities to learn, grow, and occasionally fix the copy machine! The staff is incredibly welcoming, friendly, and always willing to help.

I’ve been happily married to Paul for 36 years, have three married adult children, and am a proud grandma to three wonderful grandchildren (and counting!).

With a lifelong background in customer service, spanning business ownership, manufacturing, leadership development, event planning, and catering, I’m now enjoying the adventure of working in education. I love serving others, finding creative solutions, and helping make each day a little better for those around me. I enjoy meeting all people, and there are no strangers, just friends I haven’t met yet!
