Experience

Teaching style

My teaching style is a mix of structure and creativity—with strong routines, playful learning opportunities, and a deep focus on student voice and emotional growth. I believe in calm classrooms, kind conversations, and teaching with heart.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I’ve had the honor of leading school-wide SEL initiatives, mentoring new educators, and being part of a dynamic team that puts kids first every single day. My proudest moments always come from the connections I build with students and families.

My own education history

I hold degrees in education, leadership, and social work, which has allowed me to approach teaching through a trauma-informed, equity-driven lens. I’m a lifelong learner who loves growing alongside my students.

Additional biographical information

Beyond the classroom, I’m a creative at heart—blogger, product designer, and solo traveler. I also run a small business, Graciously Crafted, which blends my love for teaching with personalized gifts and apparel. You’ll find all of that energy right here in this store!
