With a solid foundation in teaching 1st and 2nd grade dating back to 2012, I've transitioned into the enriching world of gifted and talented education. My expertise lies in fostering a love for reading, phonics, and math in young learners. Now, as a dedicated gifted and talented teacher, I continue to prioritize creating engaging learning environments where students flourish while enjoying the journey of discovery.
As an educator, I believe in cultivating a classroom environment that balances structure with creativity. With a tough yet fair approach, I strive to prepare my students thoroughly for the challenges of the next grade, while also fostering a love for learning through play. I've found that small group settings are where magic happens, especially in math and reading, as individualized attention fuels remarkable progress.

In my downtime, I'm constantly exploring new ways to support my students, driven by a passion for their growth and success. Beyond the classroom, you'll often find me immersed in nature, whether it's camping under the stars or hiking through scenic trails. Connecting with the great outdoors rejuvenates my spirit and fuels my commitment to providing the best possible education experience for my students.
