ABOUT ME!
With more than 25 years of experience as a middle school theatre educator, I am passionate about inspiring creativity, building confidence, and helping students discover their unique voices. I hold two master's degrees in education and have spent my career creating meaningful, engaging, and inclusive learning experiences through the arts. Beyond the classroom, I have worked at a farm day camp for more than 20 years and am also involved with a local plant shop, where I continue to share my love of nature, community, and hands-on learning. When I'm not teaching, you'll likely find me near the water, enjoying the ocean or spending time kayaking.
