Hello everyone! I am very excited to be teaching 4th grade at Memorial Elementary! I absolutely love the Brunswick School District and am so excited to be a part of the Brunswick Community! Some background information about me is that my mom taught at Applewood Elementary School for 37 years, so Brunswick is like a second home to me! The rest of my family consists of my 93 year old grandfather, an older brother, a wonderful sister-in-law, and a beautiful niece. I've been involved in the Brunswick schools every since I began student teaching at Huntington in 2013. Every since student teaching, I had several small jobs in Brunswick, such as co-teaching with Mrs. Hayest and many long term subbing positions at Applewood and at Edwards. So like I said before, I am so excited to be teaching in Brunswick!
Some of my favorite things:
Season: Fall Sport: Baseball
Color: Pink Music: Country
Animal: Penguin Hobbies: Reading, Writing, Traveling, and going to the movies!
I am looking forward to a wonderful year at Memorial!

My philosophy about teaching is to always put my students learning first! I teach through utilizing Project Based Learning (PBL), technology, collaboration, and I try my best to have hands on learning so students can experience what they are learning. My favorite thing my students say every year is that they are having fun while learning and that they have learned a bit about themselves this year!
