After over twenty years in education, I still find myself excited by teaching and learning. I enjoy working in a creative environment, alongside students and colleagues. I enjoy creating a supportive classroom community where my students feel comfortable taking risks, making mistakes, and challenging themselves. Throughout my years as an educator I have continuously pushed myself to learn more to improve my practice. I have completed a variety of coursework, participated in many academic conferences, and been a part of many committees including the Building Leadership Team at Alan Shepard. I feel fortunate to work in a community where I have been able to better my practice because of the educators and administrators I work alongside.
