As a graduate of University of St. Francis, I earned my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and began teaching Language Arts for grades 6-8 at St. Jude School in Joliet, where I remained an educator for over 20 years. I am very passionate about reading and love to share my love of books. My goal is to inspire readers in even the most reluctant students. I strive to be an effective teacher who guides students to make connections and discover the world around them through a variety of experiences and resources.
As a mother who has raised four children and has worked with adolescents extensively, I understand the importance of communication, compassion, and understanding. I treat each student how I would want teachers to treat my own children. Additionally, I am quite enthusiastic about teaching and love what I do!
