Superintendent
I’m incredibly honored to have been selected as the next Superintendent of St. John-Hudson Unified School District! I’m deeply grateful to the Board for their confidence in my leadership.
From the very first conversations with the Board and community, I felt a strong sense of purpose, compassion, and a shared commitment to student success. USD 350 is a district full of heart, with talented educators, supportive families, and resilient, brilliant students. I’m genuinely grateful for the opportunity to serve and lead in a place so deeply rooted in community and care.
This school year, as I step into this new chapter, my approach will be grounded in three core commitments:
- Listening first: To understand the needs, hopes, and dreams of our students, staff, and families.
- Leading with integrity: Guided by what’s best for students, always.
- Collaborating boldly: Lasting change occurs when we work together.
We have an extraordinary opportunity to co-create a future where every student feels seen, supported, and empowered to thrive in school and life. I look forward to partnering with each of you to support student success while building on the strengths that make USD 350 a great place to learn and grow.
Let’s continue to build something amazing, together!
Regards,
