I grew up in Buffalo, NY and attended the State University of New York; College at Geneseo where I earned my BA in History and Education. I earned my Masters Degree in Education, with a focus on Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment from Walden University. I moved to Florence in 2006 and taught at J Paul Truluck and Ron E McNair Middle Schools in Lake City. I also spent 6 years teaching in the IB Program at Williams. I also worked as the Testing Coordinator at South Florence High School. I am returning to the classroom after a parenthood sabbatical and I am very excited to be back!
