    Our Principal

    Welcome to the Ontarioville website. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I came to U-46 in 2013 as the Assistant Principal of Liberty Elementary School and in 2014 I became the Principal of Ontarioville. I have been an educator for over 30 years and have served in a variety of capacities on school sites and school district settings in California and Illinois.  I started as an elementary school teacher in Pomona, CA and prior to coming to U-46, I was the Director of Technology and Learning in SD142 in Oak Forest, IL. Most of my university education was in southern California and I earned my doctoral degree from the University of Southern California, CA in 2010. 

    I was born and raised in Hong Kong and have been married for 30 years. We have one daughter and one son. Our daughter works in the healthcare field and my son works in the business sector. Both of them were enrolled in a Spanish-English Dual Language Program. Both are trilingual in English, Spanish and Cantonese. 

    I am very proud of OntarioviIle. It is a wonderful place where students, staff, and teachers embrace the core values of Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports Program (PBIS) by being responsible, respectful, and safe.  Our mission is that Ontarioville students, families, staff, and community will work together effectively to foster a safe and engaging learning environment so that all students have the opportunity to achieve their full potential. 

    I am honored to have the privilege to serve the students and community of Ontarioville. I am excited to get to know you and your child, so please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns. I look forward to meeting you. 

    Thank You!
