I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York.  While I appreciate all that New York City has to offer, I made a choice to move to  Georgia five years ago and I have loved every minute of being here. I live in Buford, GA with my husband, who has shared the past 18 years with me, my son, daughter, 3 dogs and 2 parakeets.

My teaching career began 12 years ago in New York City.  I taught second and third grade for seven years in an inner city school.  I never could have imagined my career choice to be such a rewarding one, surprisingly it has been.  My joy comes from creating life long learners who are not afraid to take chances. 

I did not think that I could find a place as rewarding as my school in New York City, but I have here at Lilburn Elementary.  I joined a family of exceptional people five years ago.  They share my love for watching children learn.  I have been part of the third grade team for the past five years where we all strive to have all students meet their fullest potential. 

Thank you for entrusting your children to me.
