Principal/Mission

The mission of Westridge is to ensure that 100% of our students grow academically, socially and emotionally because kids deserve to be seen, supported, and challenged.

I came to the United States when I was eight years old. My second grade ELL teacher introduced me to my love of learning. She taught me that I could accomplish anything with hard work even through life's challenges.

I started serving in public eduction in 1993 in Dodge City, KS. I began my career as a tutor and finished my tenure in Dodge City as the principal of Dodge City High School.

I have an Associates of Arts degree from Dodge City Community College and a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education from Newman University. 

I have a Masters of Science degree in Educational Administration and Leadership from Kansas State University where I am currently a doctorial candidate.

I look forward to partnering with the Westridge Community to reach our mission together!
