Anything you’d like us to know about you? I have two sons and have been married for 27 years this past summer!!
What is Important to Me
My family, friends, and students are all very important to me. I have been married for 27 years and have two “almost” grown sons. Both boys will be in college this year. I enjoy spending time with them and will be adjusting to being an “empty nester”.
I value my students (past and present) and want to make strong connections with both my students and their families.
Teaching Style
I like having an organized classroom with clear expectations and systems in place. However, I do feel like I am a flexible person and respect the fact that not all students learn the same way and not everything has to be “perfect”. I want to develop close relationships with my students and will show my students respect. In turn, I want my students to respect their classmates as well as me.
Favorite Part of my Job
The kids!! I love seeing kids learn and get excited about learning!!
Communication Preference
The best way to contact me is through an email. I will check my email both at school and at home multiple times a day. You are welcome to call my classroom, but if I don’t answer, it’s best to follow up with an email.

What I Feel Most Strongly About
I feel strongly about showing respect to each other. I really try to show my students how important being respectful within a classroom is.
What I do for fun
I enjoy watching my son, Kyle, play baseball. I also enjoy traveling and exploring new places. I am an avid reader and am part of a book club. I like going out to eat and love to shop (especially for good deals!). I also like to exercise and spend time at the RR YMCA.
What I love about this school
This is my 16th year at CRE, so obviously I love it! I started here when my oldest started kindergarten. I love the sense of community you find at our school. I also love that people want to come to our school! I love my co-workers. Especially my team!
