“There is nothing more enjoyable than watching a student explore a new concept, test an idea, or come to a fresh realization. It is within this ‘new’ that real learning happens. As an educator, my role is to create environments where students feel safe, known, and supported, and where positive connections encourage them to grow. I strive to empower young people to think deeply, act with curiosity, and engage thoughtfully with the world around them. I am privileged to be a part of them Mount Madonna community, where learning is not just about academics – but about educating the whole individual.”

Outside of work, I’m a busy mom of four children – two in high school and two who are just beginning their college careers. When I’m not hanging out with them, you can usually find me reading, doing a puzzle, building a Lego™ set, or playing trivia with friends at our weekly get-together.
