I am currently in my 15th year as an educator. My first 10 years were spent as an elementary school teacher; I've taught 4th and 5th grade. Nowadays, you can find me juggling a busy schedule between 3 elementary schools as I work with teachers to find innovative ways to teach Science and Social Studies. I absolutely love my job as an Instructional Coach, and I thrive off of the relationships I've built with the staff at our schools.

Teaching style
I aim to use a variety of instructional practices in my classroom. I enjoy using interactive approaches to delivering the standards to my students. Groups and menus are two of my favorite strategies that I use in my classroom.
I have been happily married for almost 15 years to my husband, Kevin. We have three beautiful miracle babies, MaryBeth (11), EmmaKate (9), and Kace (6). We are raising our children in the same community that we grew up in and love.
