Thank you for giving me the wonderful opportunity to be on the PTO board. My daughter feels safe here and most importantly is having FUN because West Lab feels like home! I look forward to working with this passionate and diverse PTO Board alongside all our WL parents, staff, and teachers. Let’s have a great year and always remember to BE KIND to one another!

I am beyond honored to be part of the West Lab community & serve on the board of this very committed PTO. Supporting our bright children, our amazing teachers, and our supportive staff brings me immense joy. My fondest memories from my school years always involved an activity my mom was helping with, so now it's my turn to do that for my daughter who has is entering 5th grade this year. We're all going to have an amazing year and I'm so excited to be part of it! Hope to see you all at one of our events!

The 2024-25 school year is my 7th year as a West Lab parent, and I'm thrilled to serve the community as VP. I've served as room parent for most of my years here and the chair of the VIP Formal dance. My husband Ariel and I have 4 children: an 8th grader, twins in 6th grade, and a little one headed into 3rd grade. As well as being a dedicated mom and involved West Lab parent, my "other job" is as a commercial real estate investment executive. My goals are to help make West Lab the most inclusive, thoughtful, and fun place for our students to learn and thrive. I strive to be receptive to the needs of the community, so please reach out to me via email or stop me to chat about anything big or small that can help guide the PTO as to how to best serve our families.
As a pianist and music educator, I’ve been active in teaching for over twenty years and am currently Professor of Music at Broward College. I am thrilled to share my experience and join a wonderful group of parents as PTO Co-Secretary. I’ve been active as a room parent for multiple grades and most enjoy the involvement and participation with parents, teachers, students, and administration while working to continue the core mission and betterment of the West Lab community.
With two children at West Lab (3rd and 1st grade), I am thrilled to join the PTO board for the 2025-2026 school year.
