Hello! I am very excited to start another great school year filled with fun and learning. I have been teaching first grade for the past nineteen years and truly enjoy teaching this age group. The enthusiasm they have for learning is contagious and I am always amazed by how much they grow both academically and socially. I love to see the world through the eyes of first graders!

A little about me…
I am married to a wonderful man and we have two boys, Owen (12) and Alex (14). They both play sports so I spend a lot of my time outside school watching baseball and hockey games. I love to read, bake, and spend time outdoors hiking and camping. I have a true passion for traveling and was thrilled to spend time this summer exploring Glacier National Park and Banff, Canada.

I graduated from the Ohio State University with a degree in Communications. After working in the corporate world for two years, I felt a calling to enter the field of education. I received my teaching license from Capital University and my master’s degree from Ashland University in Literacy. I have been with New Albany for the past ten years.

The New Albany Primary School is a special place to work and I look forward to the new adventures we will have in first grade!
