Hello! I am your child's fifth grade ELA and Social Studies teacher this year! I started my career as a fourth grade teacher in Virginia. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a Bachelor's degree in Human Development and again with a Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction (PK-6.) Because of this, I am a big Virginia Tech sports fan! Go Hokies!! In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, exercising, shopping, reading, and playing with my dog.
My hope for this year is that your child feels safe, respected, and valued in my classroom. I believe we are all lifelong learners, and I want to make learning an exciting adventure. I look forward to working together to make this an incredible school year!
