I have been in education for 23 years now - 3 teaching Language Arts, Social Studies, and Reading at the middle school level and 12 teaching Communication Skills and English I at South Caldwell High School. This is my 9th year as Freshman Academy Director. In the 2023-2024 school year, I'm excited to be teaching a section of Teacher Cadet 1 in the fall and a section of Teacher Cadet 2 in the spring.


I love working with students, teachers, and parents throughout the important transitional 9th grade year.


Outside of school, I am a wife of an amazing husband who is also an educator and coach at South Caldwell High School, proud mother of an adult son who is pursuing his master's degree at St. Francis University in Pennsylvania, cookie baker, Fantasy Football team manager, reader, music lover, hiker, roller coaster enthusiast, traveler, and more!
