Hello! I am a 3rd grade teacher at Cardinal. I started teaching 2nd grade at McKinley in 2011 and have loved it ever since! I grew up in Connecticut with my twin sister and older brother. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in History and Master’s degree in Elementary Education from University of Mary Washington. Then, I completed a Reading Specialist program at George Mason University and an arts integration certification through the Kennedy Center. I am also a Seesaw Ambassador. I was honored as McKinley’s Teacher of the Year for 2018-2019! At school, I am the Kaleidoscope Liaison and PTA Liaison. Some of my favorite things include riding horses, reading, spending time with friends, and gardening. I have a German Shepherd named Hans at home. At Cardinal, you can find me in room 326!
