I have been teaching at Fairfield for fifteen years. I taught second
grade for six years and third grade for four years. This is my fifth year
teaching fifth grade. I received my bachelor's degree from St. Joseph's
College and my master's degree from C.W. Post. I am certified in elementary
education, special education, and reading.
I grew up in Massapequa and I now live with my husband and two boys in
Mineola. I really enjoy reading and I love to write. I love going to the
beach, too. My favorite place to visit is Disney World!
My goal is to create a learning environment where all of the students will
reach their potential, feel comfortable, and be excited about learning.
"To reach a child's mind a teacher must capture his heart. Only if a child
feels right can he think right."
