On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
In addition to a fragile economy, major transportation issues and escalating taxes, the Loudoun County school system faces a serious challenge in acquiring the necessary resources to meet projected enrollments. Through management reform, long-range planning and a willingness to consider new options, the critical needs can be met.

I care about the educational needs of students. I have broad experience and strong leadership qualities to address the major challenges that lie ahead.
