“The magic of life awakens when you open your mind and dare to fulfill your dreams.”

Welcome Horace Mann Readers! I have been teaching in St. Paul for over twenty years and enjoy supporting and preparing students for a life-long love of learning. I am always in search of new ways to help students become avid readers and curious learners. I enjoy exploring the latest brain research and how to incorporate it into my instruction. My objective as a WINN Reading teacher is to provide individualized, small group lessons that utilize the latest research to help students read to the best of their ability. I look forward to supporting readers on their journey in becoming well-balanced and informed individuals. In my spare time I enjoy being with my family, camping, running, biking, cross-country skiing, archery and simply enjoying a great book! I am sure the 2021-2022 school year will be amazing!
