This is my twelfth year teaching at the School District of Springfield Township, and my eighth year at Erdenheim Elementary. My philosophy on teaching is that if kids can’t learn the way we teach, we must teach them the way they learn. That means my classroom is typically a fun, active and challenging setting. I enjoy learning and teaching through games, small group instruction, physical movement, individualized learning goals, and a positive work environment.
When I am not working on school related activities, I like to spend my time with my family. My husband of 25 years and I enjoy traveling together on weekend excursions. Our two daughters have graduated college, secured jobs in their fields, and moved out of their childhood home, which makes us empty-nesters. Our "furbaby,” eleven-year-old Chloe the pug, keeps us very active. When I’m relaxing, I love to read, take photographs, watch movies, and listen to music. A fun fact about me: my favorite color is periwinkle!
