This is my tenth year teaching at Lemon Road, my fifth year in sixth grade. Before, I taught fifth grade for six years, including a year in San Diego, and taught for a year as a middle and high school reading specialist in Upstate New York. It's always a joy to get to know students and their families. I enjoy traveling, hiking, biking, kayaking, baseball, football, board games, and spending time with family and friends.
