The 2023-2024 school year marks my fifth year teaching 3rd grade here at SMM!I graduated Rosemont College with a duel major in Elementary Education and French. I am currently working on my Masters at St Josephs University to complete my Reading Specialist Certification. I have 20 years of teaching experience and I am pleased to say that I started my career here at SMM years ago as a second grade teacher. I also did my student teaching here! I went on to teach in the Norristown School District for 7 years before taking a few years off to stay home with my kids. I then returned to teaching as a Pre-K teacher followed by various short and long term assignments in public school (including 1st, 3rd and 4th grades). I am happy to return to the Catholic community and cannot think of a better place than SMM!

I live nearby with my husband Bill, my two sons, and our black lab named Scout. My sons Colin and Tyler attend ed St Patricks and now attend Bishop Shanahan High School. I always wanted to teach ever since I was in 2nd grade and had a fabulous teacher whom I admired so much. I look forward to teaching your wonderful kids this year! I truly strive to make learning FUN and pride myself in finding what works for each child so that he or she can find academic success.

In addition to teaching.....I also love spending time with my family, traveling (especially to the Jersey shore and Disney but my new favorite is Nantucket), Philadelphia Sports teams especially the Phillies, reading, gardening, walking, calligraphy, baking, all things Christmas, kayaking, and listening to Music. My favorites are Coldplay and Josh Groban.
