About the store
I have enjoyed teaching for 20 years and have taught all the core subjects 3rd-8th. My focus for over a decade has been mathematics, and robotics for grades 4 - 8. For 13 years I have collaborated with Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Academy developing curriculum and coaching a middle school First Lego League team. I have taught undergraduate and graduate classes at The University of Pittsburgh & Carlow University and have mentored university education students since 2000. Recent presentations include: "Using Fantasy Football to Teach Mathematics"- Pittsburgh Association of Independent Schools Conference; and "Using Robots to Teach Mathematics" - National Association of Laboratory Schools International Conference.

I strive each day to inspire my students to pursue their passions and to impart to them the knowledge and confidence they need to become the artist, the mathematician, the engineer. . . the life-long learner who never stops making connections and positively contributing to the world around them.
