Nancy was born and raised in Springfield Township. She is the youngest of 10 children. Her parents instilled in their children a love of God and family. They encouraged each of their children to follow their dreams and value education. They were advocates of personal responsibility, a strong work ethic, and a belief that all things are possible with God. With this strong parental guidance, Nancy was able to forge her path forward.
She graduated from McAuley High School in 1984. She then went on to earn her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from Catholic University of America in 1988. She then attended The Ohio State University College of Medicine where she graduated in 1993. Nancy went on to pursue her internship and residency in Internal Medicine, also at Ohio State, which she completed in 1996. She then returned to Cincinnati where she began her employment with The Christ Hospital as a primary care physician, where the majority of her career has been.
Nancy values education and believes that every child should receive an excellent education in a safe environment. Education is a partnership between the family, the student, and the professional educators. For a student to reach their full potential, all parts need to work together. There needs to be mutual respect. The family is the building block of society and a child’s first educator. Parental rights are respected. Discipline and respect for others starts in the family unit. When parents are involved in a child’s education, the child achieves at a higher level.
Nancy’s parents were involved in the education of their children and set this example for Nancy as a parent. Nancy has one daughter who is now a high school senior. Nancy was involved with her daughter’s education as a Girl Scout Troop Leader from K-5. She was also involved in the Everybody Counts program. She assisted in various classroom/school activities by either volunteering at the event and/or sending in needed supplies. She volunteered at sporting events and dance recitals in which her daughter participated. She has worked at the Open House at her daughter’s high school. She has also assisted the high school theater department by painting sets, selling tickets, and selling flowers. She has contributed to school fundraisers.
Nancy is a member of Loyola Parish. She enjoys reading, walking her dogs, spending time with family, and making crafts. She is involved in volunteer activities for RSVP/Vantage. For this organization she has made birthday bags and greeting cards for senior citizens.
Nancy desires to be an advocate for students and to represent the taxpayers. She will strive to serve the NWLSD to the best of her ability to help make the district a high performing, fiscally responsible entity.
