Areas of Expertise
|
With over 15 years of experience in early childhood systems and organizational leadership, I have a strong track record of driving impactful programs, building partnerships, and securing sustainable funding to improve outcomes for children and families. My expertise includes personnel management, budget oversight, program development, and strategic planning, ensuring compliance with regulations while optimizing resources for measurable success.
As a former Director and Interim Executive Director at Child Care Aware of Kansas, I led multimillion-dollar programs, launched grassroots initiatives like "Communities in Action," and secured over $12 million in funding through grant writing. Passionate about advancing access to high-quality child care and education, I leverage my leadership, communication, and analytical skills to support organizations that prioritize the well-being of children and families. |
