My Story

After 25 years advising award-winning publications at Legacy High School in Mansfield, I’ve survived every yearbook crisis imaginable… and now I help advisers avoid them! As Walsworth’s DFW Education Specialist, my mission is simple: make your yearbook life easier, more creative and way less stressful. I’m excited to work alongside you and your students to create a yearbook you’re proud of.
