Education and Experience
I graduated from Rutgers University with a B.A. in Journalism and worked as a public relations writer for three years before returning to Kean University to pursue my Elementary Education teaching certification. I also attended Bloomfield College and received a master's certificate in Special Education.
I began my career teaching at a Head Start program. I taught there until my children were born. Upon returning to work, I taught and then became the director of a parent-owned, cooperative preschool. I worked there until I came to Parkview in 2015. This is my fifth year teaching Kindergarten and I am so excited to meet all of our new kindergartners!
I've been teaching for over 20 years. I have two children of my own, a daughter and a son. We have one cat named Apollo. We are avid campers and love hiking, boating and visiting national parks.

I graduated from Rosemont College, PA with a B.A in Elementary Education. I received a M.A in Special Education from Saint Joseph's University.
I have been working at Parkview since 2015 and this will be my fifth year as a kindergarten teacher. I have an adorable chinchilla named Pikachu and I love to eat chocolate. In my spare time, I love to spend time with my family (especially with my three-year old niece and one year old nephew), go to the beach, go hiking or anything that involves the great outdoors!
