Administrative Assistant
My name is Dale, and I’ve been happily married for almost 40 years. I’m the proud mom of four adult children and grandmother to four amazing grandchildren. I also have two beloved fur babies. I love spending time with family and friends, and coming from a large family as does my husband. I can honestly say I’ve been around and caring for children most of my life.
Before joining The Willow School, I worked in the medical field for nearly 30 years. I made a career change due to health reasons, and when I was ready to return to work, my son suggested I join him at Willow. A chef position happened to be available in 2018, and I’m so glad I took the opportunity! I truly love being part of the Willow community.
I worked as the school chef until March 2020, and returned to Willow in October 2022 as the Administrative Assistant, a role I currently hold and genuinely enjoy every day.
