I have a B.A. in Early Childhood Education and Psychology from New Jersey City University. I have been in the education field for over 30 years. My education philosophy is based on building positive and trusting relationships in a safe, enriched, fun and supportive environment so that children can play, learn, and grow together. It is important to me as a mother and a teacher, to help children embrace the joys and challenges of learning, as they develop their unique self. This has always been a passion

of mine. I become a part of my student's world as much as they become a part of mine!

I was born and raised in Jersey City NJ. I am married with 5 children, 3 daughters in law and 8 grandbabies! I also have a Yorkie named Sal. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with family, golfing, cooking and traveling. My favorite sports teams are the Yankees, Giants, Rangers and Knicks. My favorite vacation was to Maui and my spirit animal is an owl.
