I was born in Taipei, Taiwan and moved to United States when I was 16. I finished my Bachelor’s degree in Accounting from San Francisco State University and have lived in Newark with my husband and two children for 15 years. Both of our children are currently attending Newark schools. Prior joining Newark Unified School District Child Care Department, I was a corporate accountant for many years. I am very excited to be part of the schools and working with families and children in our community

I live in Newark with my husband and one of my two sons. Both of my sons went through the Newark school system. I was a legal secretary for about 26 years before coming to Newark Unified. I started at Schilling School and worked there for 12 years, first as an Attendance Clerk, then, as their Librarian. I love working for Newark Unified because of the great people I am surrounded with, and having the children’s playground right outside our office is special because I get to hear the shouts and laughter of children playing and having fun!
