Why Education?

Education is fun, exciting, and rewarding. Everyday in education is different and being able to learn from my students makes me a better person. Creating an inclusive, joyful classroom, where every student can share and collaborate, in order to reach their goals, is an amazing way to spend the day. Watching my class grow throughout the year is the BEST feeling in the world!

I began as a 5th grade English Language Arts teacher -Florida- 8 years, Title 1 math -North Carolina- 7 years, Ashley Elementary-DPS- August 2022. Education: BA Elementary Education, Masters Degree Educational Leadership, currently pursuing Doctorate in Educational Leadership.
