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 6th grader and Lily is a 2nd 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 Co-President 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 have 2 kids attending Thomas; Austin is a 5th grader and Lila is a 3rd grader. This is my 5th year serving on the Executive Committee of the PTO, third as Co-President. I have loved serving on the PTO and getting to know parents, staff, and students while supporting our school through various events. I am so thankful to the teachers and staff at Thomas and am looking forward to another year of helping to support them as well as continuing to find new ways to improve the school environment and community for our students and families. I am a preschool teacher at Dublin Community Preschool. I am so excited and grateful to have Dana with me as my Co- President. When I catch a free minute, I love to read, spend time with friends, exercise & my family and I enjoy going to sporting events, hiking, & traveling!
Hi, I’m Jamie, Vice President of Social Events. I have two daughters - Maire is in the 7th Grade at Sells MS and Maeve is in 3rd Grade at Thomas.
Our family has been at Thomas for 8 years. We love cheering on the Columbus Crew and vacationing in Hilton Head! I run Little Quacks, LLC an in-home childcare business and I lead the 7th Grade Thomas Girl Scout Troop. I also hold the title of "Cookie Mom" for two Thomas Girl Scouts Troops. Our girls are involved in soccer, softball, CrossFit, and Girl Scouts! Excited for another amazing year at Thomas!
Hi, I'm Heather, Vice President of Fundraising and School Supplies Chair. I have 8 children and all of them have attended Thomas Elementary. I currently have one child at Thomas – Jack - 5th Grade. Millie and Leah are at Sells MS, Robbie is currently in the PATHs Program at Emerald Campus. Our older "kids" - Thomas, Victoria, Dakota, and Alex have all graduated.
I have volunteered with the Thomas PTO for over 14 years and served on various committees. Our family relocated to Texas in 2015 and returned to Dublin in 2020. We are thrilled to be back in the Buckeye State!
It is important to me that my children know that I support them, their school, teachers, and staff. Many of our children have special needs so I spend a lot of time at medical and therapy appointments. In my "spare time" I enjoy running, sewing, gardening and spending time with my family. I also love connecting with other families who have special needs. I'm excited for year #15 at Thomas!
Hi, I’m Kristen - Communications Secretary! I am a busy mama to three blue eyed girls. I have two Thomas Tigers....Maya is in the 3rd Grade & Tessa is in 1st Grade. My oldest, Bryn is a former Thomas Tiger and is now in the 7th Grade at Sells MS. I have been involved in the PTO for 8 years, and served on the Executive Board for the past 5 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-VP of Social Events. I’m a newer addition to the PTO Board, leading the Party in the Box effort for the Harvest and Winter Parties. I have two students at Thomas Elementary and one future Tiger. Thomas (my son’s actual name and also the name of the school) is currently in 4th grade and Connor is in 1st grade. My daughter, Naomi, will be in kindergarten next year.
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 with social events this year!
Hello! I'm Andrea, a new Thomas mom and PTO Treasurer. My oldest daughter, Adelaide, is in 2nd Grade this year. I jumped in with both feet last year and became a member of the PTO executive committee out of the gate! I am excited to work with such an amazing group of people dedicated to the well-being of our kids and their school. We have another daughter, Audra, who is 4 and we look forward to many years with our girls at Thomas.
As a family, we love going to COSI, playing at parks, exploring new activities (and continuing old ones), and visiting with friends and family. We regularly travel up to the Cleveland area where my husband (Adam) and I attend our Broadway season ticket shows up at Playhouse Square and the girls get some time with Yiayia and Papa (Adam's parents). My parents still live here in Dublin in the house I grew up in. I'm looking forward to the start of a new chapter and getting to know many of you as my girls start to follow in my Dublin Schools footsteps!
