Hello! I am happy to be teaching at Glen Arden Elementary! I have been teaching in public schools for more than ten years. I absolutely love being in the classroom environment and being a part of the community! Asheville is a very special place for me. I have visited the mountains and fell in love with the outdoors. There is truly something special about this community and I am so excited to develop relationships with the families that make up our school community.

A little about me: I can't get enough of hiking and seeing some of the most beautiful views from on top of a mountain or at the bottom of a waterfall. I love writing music and poetry during my free time, and I enjoy listening to music. I went to college at the State University of New York at Plattsburgh. I knew from a young age that I would be a teacher. I believe that "if you dream it, you can do it" and encourage my students to believe in their strengths and talents because those will determine success in the future. I believe in the "growth mindset" and I encourage students to set their own individual goals. I am confident this is going to be a wonderful year. Go Rams!
