About Me

EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
I strongly believe in the power of education to not only teach our young people but to help prepare them for a challenging and dynamic world.
I love children, want the best for them, and am determined to go the extra mile to ensure their success. In order to learn, children must be an active part of the educational process.
I believe all children can and will learn if placed in an environment that is educational, compassionate, patient, and engaging.
