I spent 35+ years running global businesses for Fortune 100 companies. Most recently, as President of Danone’s $7B Specialized Nutrition, I led a phenomenal organization of 20,000+. I previously worked at Merck, J&J and Kraft. I’m now on the Boards of Aramark, Newman’s Own Inc., Dexcom and Novartis.
I have served 24 years within the Elementary school setting in various instructional roles. I have also served as the Mentor Coordinator for new and returning teachers.
I have led professional development for faculty at several schools within Pinellas County. I have coached colleagues in the understanding and delivery of the standards of reading and writing. My love for learning is what drives my passion for teaching. When I look into the eyes of a scholar who needs me, that is where I find my passion!
