I love to learn. Every now and then, we all need a little helping hand. I am thrilled and honored to be able to be that help for young students. I am a hard worker who likes to see sweat and smiles turn into success. In 2007, I graduated from Bucknell University with a B.S. in Elementary Education and a PA teaching certification. I spent some time teaching dramatic arts to students in Austin, Texas before I moved to New Orleans in 2008. There I taught kindergarten for two years and helped develop a fun after school program for our students. In 2010 I moved to NYC for graduate school at Teachers College, Columbia University. I had the pleasure to work as a service learning coordinator for PS 92 in Harlem with students from kindergarten to fourth grade. After graduating with my masters in Educational Leadership, I began working at a charter school in Newark, NJ. I spent three years teaching second grade at that school until moving into my current position as a curriculum designer for an educational organization. In my role as a curriculum designer, I work hard to prepare daily lessons for teachers around the country that lead students to mastery in literacy instruction. My passion in education is to provide students with opportunities so that they can develop future opportunities. Any student has countless possibilities in front of them as long as their education is solid and their mind and heart share the same goals. I am happy to help your kiddo on the path to being the difference he or she wants to make in the world!
