About Me
I was born and raised on Long Island, in Islip, New York. In 2000 I graduated from Islip High School. In order to pursue my passion for teaching children, I chose to attend Hofstra University for their exceptional education program. While at Hofstra I majored in both Elementary Education and Psychology. I graduated in the spring of 2004 with my Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and Psychology.
Since my graduation in 2004, I have held several different teaching positions. I began my teaching career as an Academic Intervention Services Teacher (Title 1) at Mt. Pleasant Elementary in Smithtown, NY. I had student taught at Mt. Pleasant, and spent a year and a half in my AIS position before deciding to relocate to Fargo, ND. While in Fargo I was a substitute and then a preschool teacher. In December of 2007 I relocated to Little Falls, MN. Since August of 2008 I have been employed at St. Cloud Independent School District. Many of those years were spent teaching 5th grade. The past couple of years I have been back in the primary setting teaching 1st grade at Madison! This past spring I accomplished another goal of mine by receiving my Master of Education degree at the College of St. Scholastica, with an additional certificate in Educational Technology.
I still currently reside in Little Falls, MN with my husband and two children, Abigail and Jacob. Besides teaching and raising two children I spend my time in a variety of ways; I can often be found cooking, reading, sewing, knitting, dancing or singing! I am very excited for the year ahead, and looking forward to all the memories we will be creating together!
