I began teaching at l'Etoile du Nord in 2005. I received an undergraduate degree in French and Education and masters degree in Education both from Hamline University. I studied abroad in Rennes, France during my junior year at Hamline University. I taught second grade at L'Etoile du Nord for eight years and this is my sixth year teaching third grade.

I love cooking foods from around the globe and baking cookies. I enjoy sitting with a friend and talking over coffee and croissants. 

I am passionnate about French Immersion education and love speaking French every day. Our school values supporting the emotional and educational needs of each child.
