About Me

I am a big, big coffee girl. You'll likely spot me at the Westwood Starbucks or the Rivervale Dunkin ordering a large iced vanilla shaken espresso with oat milk.
I've been doing a coffee tour every weekend where I stop at a new coffee shop, but I'm running out of new spots! If you have any recommendations, send them my way!

I am a self proclaimed plant enthusiast. My home looks like a jungle and taking care of all of the plants is basically a second full time job.

This is my 9th year teaching. I worked in Fort Lee for a year as a 4th grade teacher, and then I moved to Ho-Ho-Kus where I taught 3rd grade for 2 years and Library Media (as well as a slew of other middle school classes like TV Studio and Photography) for 3 years. This is now my third year in the Westwood School District.

I got my bachelor's degree in Media Production with an emphasis in film editing. Then I went back to school to get my teaching certificate and then back AGAIN to get my school library certification.
I absolutely love being a Media Specialist, but I haven't given up my film background! You may spot me at a sporting event filming a game.. football season is my busiest time of year!
