I am an active member in my community and often participate in community events such as Fiesta Days, fairs in Memorial Park, and church events. I have been a parishioner at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church my entire life and know the community of McHenry well. I am actively involved in measures to better educate secondary students to prepare them for post-graduate success whether it be in the workforce or higher education. In addition, I am continually collaborating successfully with community members and educators which benefit me as a candidate through my mediating abilities in administrative circumstances.
