Hi, I’m Kristen - Co-President! I am a busy mama to three blue eyed girls. I have two Thomas Tigers....Maya is in the 4th Grade & Tessa is in 2nd Grade. My oldest, Bryn is a former Thomas Tiger and is now in the 8th Grade at Sells MS. I have been involved in the PTO for 9 years, and served on the Executive Board for the past 6 years. It is truly an honor to be a part of this amazing community! I love being involved and making a difference in my kids school.

In my "spare time” I work for a professional organizing company called Sort & Soul, I substitute teach at Dublin Community Preschool and I lead three Girl Scout Troops. I started a creative small shop called Three Love Bugs in 2021 as an outlet for my passion for ALL things creative. I am also contributor for Columbus Moms Blog and an "Uber driver" for my kids and ALL their activities. I love exploring Columbus with my family, reading, travel, hiking, decorating and documenting life through pictures. My families favorite things are the beach, OSU football, horseback riding, travel, golf, soccer and spending time together in the woods. I can’t wait to for another FUN year at Thomas! 

Hi, I’m Julie, Co-President. I’m a newer addition to the PTO Board, leading the Party in the Box effort for the Harvest and Winter Parties my first year and serving as Co-VP of Social last year.  I will have three students at Thomas Elementary this coming fall. Thomas (my son’s actual name and also the name of the school) will be in 5th grade; Connor will be in 2nd grade and Naomi will be in kindergarten.

Our family enjoys traveling and all the sports. We spend time cheering on the Columbus Crew, Cleveland Guardians and the Ohio State Buckeyes. The kids play soccer, baseball, basketball, flag football, swim, dance and/or ski. We spend a lot of time on some field, which is our happy place. I love to see my kiddos smile and hope to have the same effect on all the Thomas Tiger students this school year!

I am happy to be entering my 5th year of serving on the PTO and 3rd as Co-President.  I have 2 kids and one is a Thomas student this year. My son Corbin is a 7th grader and Lily is a 3rd Grader. I work full time as a non-profit Operations Manager at NC4K supporting pediatric cancer families. I enjoy going on adventures with the kids, themed parties with friends, and family gatherings.  I am genuinely excited to serve on the PTO and looking forward to getting to know more Thomas families. My commitment in serving as VP of Socials is to stay engaged with the school, fundraise to enhance the students' learning environment and create social opportunities where Thomas students can foster relationships, have fun, and grow.

I’m excited to be serving my first year on the Thomas PTO as Fundraising Co-Chair! My husband and I have a daughter in 1st grade at Thomas, a 3.5-year-old son, and we’re eagerly awaiting the arrival of another future Thomas Tiger this fall! Our family is also kept busy (and entertained!) by our two rescue dogs.

When I’m not wearing my “mom hat,” I work as a Family Nurse Practitioner. Both my husband and I are proud Ohio State alumni, and we love cheering on the Buckeyes whenever we get the chance. As a family, we enjoy traveling together—Disney World and Hilton Head Island are two of our favorite spots!

I feel so grateful to be part of the Thomas community and am looking forward to helping with fundraising efforts to support our students, teachers, and school this year.

Hello, I'm Andrea and this is my 4th year as PTO Treasurer. Adam and I have two Thomas Tigers. Our oldest, Adelaide, is in 3rd grade and loves Thomas so much. And we were very fortunate to have our youngest, Audra, as part of the first full-day Kindergarten class at Thomas this year! I am also a Girl Scout troop leader and lead our 3rd grade troop along with Jen, Junna (also on the board, possibly with some coaxing), and Amy who are my people and I couldn't do any of this without! I am excited to be building a new Kindergarten community around Girl Scouts as well. Always busy, but worth every minute supporting this community.

As a family, we love the Blue Jackets, playing games and video games, going to Disney, and regular trips up to Cleveland. Adam and I have been Cleveland Playhouse Square season ticket holders for 13 years! (And yes, we have a spreadsheet. I am the treasurer after all. And self-proclaimed data nerd.)

Hey- I’m Junna and I am so excited for my debut into the Thomas PTO Executive Board! My daughter Mei is a 3rd grader at Thomas and I am absolutely obsessed with her! 

I work full time as a senior nail tech at Penzone's and I also co-own the Mochi Shop off of Bethel Rd. I work odd hours and days so that I can pretend to be a stay-at-home mom and be able to volunteer for anything the school needs me for. I love helping Mrs Russel at the library on Tuesday mornings and helping Kim with the school store on Fridays. You will always catch me supporting all the events the PTO hosts! My top priority is for the kids at Thomas to receive all the love and tools they need to have a successful future. My purpose serving in the PTO is to help keep Thomas shining brighter and better every year.
