Educational Background: I attended Kent State University where I graduated with a bachelor's degree in early childhood education and a master's degree specializing in literacy.
Inspiration: I attended Richardson Elementary as a child. My first grade teacher was so kind and engaging that I decided as a 6 year old that I wanted to become a teacher. I am so pleased that I have been able to fulfill my childhood dream and overjoyed that I am able to teach where my dream first began! Family: My little family consists of myself, my kind and helpful husband, our sweet baby boy, James who is almost a year old, and our adorable little dog Joey! I enjoy laughing, trying new restaurants, and watching movies. Favorites: Foods: Apples -- I eat one almost every day! I also love a good cheese plate, chocolate, and homemade desserts. Drink: Chai Tea Latte from Starbucks and mango iced tea Fast Food: Panera and Chipotle Restaurants: California Pizza Kitchen, P.F. Changs, Carabara's, Olive Garden, The Blue Door Books: Little Women and the Harry Potter series Season: Fall Scents: Food scents -- apple, pumpkin, vanilla, etc. Store: Target has everything! Flowers: Ones in bouquets - Sadly, I do not have a green thumb. Keeping plants alive is not my specialty! Holiday: Christmas Place to Travel: Disney World and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. My dream is to eventually travel around Europe. Hobbies: Reading and making cards. I also love taking photos and hope to take a photography class someday. |
