About me:

I have taught 8th grade math for the past 20 years, and love every minute of it! This year I will be teaching 8th grade math and Algebra I. I also will be an AM and lunch supervisor. I am also an advisor of basketball club, chess club and am a Track and Field coach. So if you want to get involved....Talk to me!

A little about me: I earned my Bachelors in Secondary Education Mathematics from West Chester University, and my Masters from Nova Southeastern University. I grew up in Medford, and went to Taunton Forge, Memorial, and Shawnee. I am proud to work at Memorial. The Medford parents are supportive, my colleagues are my friends, and the students are fantastic.

The most rewarding part of teaching is watching my students grow throughout the year. They will learn the 8th grade math content, while gaining math confidence. I hope to instill in them a love for learning (especially for math😊). Every day is different and that is what makes teaching so exciting...every day is a new adventure.

I look forward to a great school year.
