About Me

I am also a magna cum laude 2000 graduate of Kutztown University, Kutztown, PA, with a MA in English, where I was also a graduate assistant. I have been a professional adjunct lecturer and tutor at the college level for thirty years. I now teach solely at Alvernia University. I teach primarily in the Communication Department but have also taught Literature courses, Health Care Science writing courses, and I am now a Search Instructor (first year experience) and first-year advisor. I have professional credits at the bachelor's level in philosophy, theology, education, and addictions and mental health, holding a Behavioral Health certificate. I have master's level reading specialist professional credits and doctoral level professional credits in leadership. I also hold a teaching certificate for Pennsylvania Private Academic Schools, English, Secondary Education. I am the Faculty Advisor the Lamba Sigma Honors Society chapter at Alvernia University. I believe that students should be taught how to think, not what to think. I am one of the most popular lecturers on campus as I am known for my kindness, compassion, and sense of humor. My education has given me the skills I need to be a tutor and teacher, but it is being a mother, daughter and friend first that is the foundation of my teaching philosophy. I chose a life of serving others, and I believe that becoming the best version of yourself is the life goal that matters most.

Hobbies & Interests

Fitness, Sports, Writing, Reading, Music, TV/Films, and I love animals. I have a rescued dog, Jenny, and cat, Jack. I love the outdoors, and I also love spending time with my family. I have three grown sons and two granddaughters.
