Hi there!! I am a first grade teacher who believes in the power of hands-on learning and exploring real-world topics to ignite curiosity and foster deep understanding. I am a fervent advocate for open-ended learning environments where students are encouraged to explore, question, and innovate freely. Teaching is not the only thing close to my heart. My strong faith in the Lord is a guiding force in my life, which causes me to instill the values of kindness, respectfulness, and empathy in my students. Apart from my love for teaching and my faith, I am a wife to a wonderful husband, dedicated coffee enthusiast, and dog mama to two sweet pups!
