A Little about Me

I have my master’s degree and endorsements in K-6 classroom, 5-8 Middle School Generalist, K-8 Reading, and 5-12 Reading. I have a passion for new teachers and have taken on facilitation of the Lewis Central Induction Program.
My hobbies include reading, camping, kayaking, and crafting. I have a passion for reading and love to help students find the right book and watch them get excited to read. I paint, crochet, and create do-it-yourself projects. I also love photography and have photographed several weddings, senior pictures, engagement photos, as well as family pics.

Why Instructional Coaching?
Instructional Coaching is all about partnering with a teacher around a student-centered learning goal and working together to improve student achievement. I chose to take on this role, because I love helping others. Coaching allows me to work in various contents, helping students excel. My favorite part of coaching is when students see me in the hall and ask if I am coming to their class today! Melts my heart!
