What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can support students to thrive in and out of the classroom—using strong organization, clear communication, and data-informed instruction in a collaborative team.

I am an experienced teacher with a passion for supporting students to thrive in and out of the classroom. I have experience with ages 4–11, including 7 years as an early childhood teacher and 5 years as a 5th grade special education teacher.

I am highly organized, detail-oriented, flexible, and I bring strong communication skills when collaborating with a team. In my roles, I design play-based learning and thematic units, assess child progress and developmental milestones, and create and implement Individualized Education Plans while modifying instruction for differentiated learners.
