Sally has had a varied professional career. She has taught high school and has been a K-12 administrator, a school psychologist, a consultant, and a professor.

Sally is well aware of the many facets of NASP andlooks forward to returning to the NASP Executive Council this July and assuming the role as President of NASP in 2013.
