I am excited to begin the 2023-24 school year!  This will be my 21th year teaching at JMS. After teaching 5th, 4th, and 2nd grades, I am thrilled to now begin teaching third grade. Prior to teaching at JMS, I worked for Nature's Classroom for 5 years, as a teacher and a program coordinator.  There I developed my love of nature, team building, and science, which I continue to bring into the classroom everyday.  I also enjoy traveling, music, reading, hiking, kayaking, penguins, and playing with my son Sammy!
