I am an experienced educator with 27 years of classroom teaching experience and a Doctor of Education (Ed.D.). My background includes degrees in Early Childhood Education and Curriculum and Instruction, and much of my career has focused on helping students become confident readers and writers. As a current classroom teacher, I work with students every day to build the literacy skills they need for long-term academic success.
Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide range of learners, including students who need additional support as well as those who benefit from enrichment and challenge. I hold certifications in both Exceptional Student Education (ESE) and Gifted Education, which has given me experience adapting instruction to meet diverse learning needs. I regularly support students in strengthening phonics, reading comprehension, vocabulary, and writing skills through clear, step-by-step instruction.
My goal is to create a positive and supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, practicing new skills, and building the confidence they need to grow as readers and writers.
