Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year! s I am looking forward to another great year at Sacred Heart in the Discovery Position. There is much to learn and opportunties to think outside the box in order to move forward together and continue learning. This position combines my passions for faith and gifted education and I am enjoy working with and developing relationships with colleagues and students throughout the school as we work to meet the needs of all learners here at Sacred Heart.
I did my undergraduate work in biology at Duke University and completed my Masters in Elementary Education at Northwestern University after being a part of a volunteer program and teaching at an inner city Catholic school on the south side of Chicago. During my teaching career I have taught everything from Kindergarten to 8th grade. While most of my classroom experience has been in the science classroom, I spent seven years teaching at independent school for gifted students where I learned to love and appreciate the diversity and unique traits of gifted learners.
I believe that good communication is the key to any successful educational endeavor and to that end I would like to maintain open lines of communication. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you have as the year gets underway!
