From 1996-2000, she worked for the Washington State PTA as Parent Involvement Director. In 1999, she had the opportunity to attend training with Dr. Joyce Epstein at the National Network of Partnership Schools in Baltimore, MD, which she has shared with PTAs and later, as a consultant to the John Stanford International School and the Office of Community Learning in Seattle.
