Along with teaching 3rd grade, I bring a background as a licensed Early Childhood & Early Childhood Special Education teacher, former preschool teacher, daycare provider, and—my favorite credential of all—a mom of five!

Before we kick off our classes, I’d love your input to help shape our time together. Please take 2 minutes to fill out this quick survey to let us know what schedule works best, topic ideas you're interested in, and any dietary restrictions for our family meals:
