About Me:
I am beginning my 16th year of teaching and have been at Avoca West since 2017; teaching 3rd grade and now beginning my second year in 2nd grade. Early in my career, I taught 3rd grade in CPS for eight years before moving out of the city to continue raising my family in my hometown of Wilmette. I earned my BA from the University of Colorado in psychology and dance and completed my Mater's degree in Elementary Education and Social Policy at Northwestern. When not at school I am busy trying out a new recipe, watching sports, and keeping up with my four children!
Statement of Philosophy:
My teaching philosophy is that students learn the best when they are in a positive learning environment where they feel welcomed, comfortable, and safe with each other. Each student brings their own particular brand of genius to the classroom, and my most important job is to discover and empower that genius.
