About the Presenters
My career in education began in 1974 after graduating with a BS from the University of Oregon and I entered the U of O College of Education Resident Teacher Program where I earned my Masters. I enjoyed 20 wonderful years in the classroom teaching grades 2nd through 6th During this time I received my Administrators License and from 1994 to 2004, I served as a k-5 principal at three different Eugene 4-J Elementary Schools. After retiring, I mentored and coached new and aspiring administrators in Eugene 4-J, and from 2007 to 2014 I taught undergraduate students as an Adjunct Professor of Education Studies at the U of O. In 2008 I began working with Education Northwest as a Leadership Coach. This led to becoming the Network Coaching Coordinator for 15 rural/remote districts. Through this work, I gained a nuanced understanding of the unique needs of non-urban communities. In 2015, I created the Oregon Rural Schools Network to support rural school leadership to create the conditions for student success.
