I have been a teacher at Buckland Mills Elementary School since we opened the school in 2006. I received my Bachelor degree from the College of William & Mary with a concentration in Psychology and Elementary Education and my Master degree from George Mason with a concentration in Special Education.  I have been lucky to have taught nearly all grade levels at BMES.  This is my 3rd year as a 3rd grade teacher.  

I have lived in Virginia since 1992, and currently live right down the road from BMES. I moved from New York when I was 10 and haven't left since. When I am not working, I am mom to 3 kids. Olivia is 10, TJ is 8, and Braylon is 5.  All 3 will be attending Buckland Mills this year.  We also have a goodledoodle puppy named Grizzly. When I am not teaching or planning lessons, I love cooking new recipes, playing with my children and working on our new home.

I am looking forward to this year and working with each and every one of you! We can do this together!! #teamBMES
