Years teaching: 17

Education: B.A. in Early Childhood/Childhood Education and Musical Theater Performance, State University of New York College at Cortland

Prior to my time at NGFS I taught 1st grade for 2 years, kindergarten for 4 years, and preschool for 10. When I am not at school or doing mom duties, I enjoy hiking and riding my bike. Sometimes I even invite my family along for the fun. I have known that I wanted to be a teacher since I was in the 11th grade. There is nothing more fulfilling than being a part of a child's journey as they learn and discover new things.
