Teaching Philosophy:

To create a learning environment that produces fun, retained knowledge, raises self-esteem, and establishes social, mental, and physical growth.
      
Personal Statement: I love kids! I know God has given me a special gift that draws children to me. As a result, this enables me to enrich their lives because they are eager to learn and please. Kids are always happy around me. I guess I still have a lot of kid in me!

I have a son, Cooper, who is a Senior in H.S. He recently moved to Boston to play Junior A hockey for the Boston Blackhawks and finish his Senior year there as he trains. I love fitness activities, the outdoors, and animals. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats. I hope to soon get a horse.

I am often considered the "energizer bunny". I have tons of energy that never seems to wear down. I always wear pink in memory of my mother who passed due to cancer.
