As I enter my 20th year as an educator, I feel thankful and excited as a I approach the upcoming year! I have been teaching in Montgomery since March of 2003. I spent several years as a first grade teacher and the past 12 years teaching second grade. I am very excited to work along side Ms. Roberts this year.  I graduated from the College of New Jersey with a degree in both Elementary Education and Art. I live in Cream Ridge, NJ; just 4 miles from Great Adventure! I have two wonderful children. Julia is 14 and Jayden just turned 13! They sure do keep me busy! I enjoy taking pictures, scrapbooking and spending time with my family. I am passionate about teaching writing and love seeing my students grow into little authors!
