HI.  I am West Middle School’s social worker.   I love working in the schools and have been with USD 497 and at West since 1994.  I also work as the school social worker at Hillcrest Elementary. As a part of the special education staff, I work with students, parents, and teachers to help kids have the best experience possible in school.   I value the chance to work with all the moving parts of a kid’s life in order for them to be happy and successful learners.  I am also available as a contact if you are needing to access services within the Lawrence community.  I am here to help.
