I have been teaching in Children's House at Nokomis Montessori since 2015. This year I am joining the Literacy Support Team. I believe in educating the whole child and guiding children through their development. I am inspired everyday by my students' joy, compassion, and love.  I work to create a welcoming and respectful environment where children's unique gifts and interests are valued.  I have two children of my own and enjoy spending time with my family and friends.
