I am a dedicated teacher with five (5) years of experience in Early Childhood and Elementary School with a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from Millikin University. My teaching philosophy is student centered and provides students with hands-on activities to engage in. I am consistently displaying the highest level of personal and professional standards. I am passionate about being a life-long learner. My professional goal is to be the spark to light the fire of learning for others. When I am not teaching, I enjoy coaching basketball, spending time with my family, playing with my dog, listening to music and reading books - my favorite are mysteries!

Spending time with family, playing basketball, listening to music, and reading.
