Hello there! Thank you for visiting my page. I began teaching here in 2006 as the preschool teacher. In 2010, I switched over and began teaching in the first grade classroom. I love working at CDTCA and especially with the first graders. I graduated from Duquesne University in 2003 with my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education. I later returned to Duquesne to receive my master's in Early Childhood Education with a Certificate in Reading and Language Arts. I have two daughters who both attend school here at CDTCA. Together, we enjoy going on adventures to the zoo and the aviary, spending time with our silly puppy, or spending time traveling to the beach (with my husband too) or visiting family.
