My objective for this website is to provide a place for prospective employers to come to learn more about myself and my job qualifications. As I pursue my career further I would like to convert this web site into an interactive learning environment for my students. In its completion there will be links for students to investigate material from class, as well as communication tools for parents and community members. I am a strong advocate for integrating technology into the classroom and I hope to demonstrate this via my website.

I graduated cum laude from West Chester University’s accredited elementary education program.  I have accumulated significant teaching experience at the kindergarten grade level, in both suburban and urban school districts.

Currently, I am employed as a kindergarten teacher at Chester Community Charter School. My classroom consists of twenty-seven urban students from challenging backgrounds. I am able to maintain a well managed community which honors each of their individual needs. This environment demands creativity, flexibility, and most of all patience.

Last year I held a position as building substitute at Indian Lane Elementary School in the Rose Tree Media School District.  In this position, I worked daily in a developmental kindergarten class composed of students diagnosed with autism, ADHD, ODD, ED, Down’s syndrome and William’s Syndrome. I enjoyed the challenges of this classroom and adapting curriculum to meet the needs of many different types of learners.
