I am excited to work toward a better life for all involved with Cahoots. I have over 35 years in education and experience with not for profit preschool. I have served on boards within my parish church, and was involved in Foster Care for 20 years. I am a proud parent of a client at Cahoots. My undergraduate is from Stevens Point and my master's from Saint Mary's.

Vice President
Hello, I am a retired teacher who taught 33 years in special education. My undergraduate and master's work is from the University of Oshkosh. I originated the LIVE program which stands for Lifelong, Independent, Vocational Education. This program prepares students for life after High School. I was involved in fundraising and public awareness for this entity. I have been involved in Respite care for families with special needs children. In the past I was an agency manager for Special Olympics. My heart is for adults who need some extra support or modifications, and how I can help them live their best life.
