“To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.” - Victor Hugo

Welcome Horace Mann Readers! This is my twenty-second year teaching in St. Paul. I enjoy supporting and preparing students for a life-long love of learning using the latest research and best practices for reading instruction. I am always in search of new ways to help students become avid readers and curious learners. My objective as a WINN Reading support teacher is to provide individualized, small group lessons 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! Let's make the 2022-2023 school year amazing!
