I am excited to have the opportunity to work with such a great group of individuals. I look forward to working with all students and building a healthy academic relationship with each of them. I graduated from West Chester University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Special Education, and I hold my Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership from Wilmington University.  I have spent the past nine years working in Special Education.  I spent three years teaching Emotional Support to a variety of students at the Middle School and High School level.  Prior to this, I worked in Life Skills providing instructional support and daily life lessons.  I have taught Social Skills and worked with students on a variety of learning levels.  I adapt my material to each student, and I try my best to make a personal connection with each of them.  One of the many goals for all of my students is for them to become successful members in society.

            Growing up I was fortunate to have a younger brother with special needs who has helped me to become the person I am today.  I know what it is like, especially from a family perspective, to be an advocate for your child.  I always keep that in mind when I am teaching your children!  I try to work with all my parents, and I believe that open communication is the key to success.  Please feel free to reach out with any questions. I am here to help.
