I am currently an eighth-grade teacher at Boushall Middle School. I have a passion for working with children of all ages and have spent my academic and professional years doing just that. When I was little I would babysit my nieces and nephews. Sometimes I watched as many as six kids in my late teenage years! I have enjoyed tutoring kids in my college days and have always had a passion for teaching "little humans" life and academic lessons. I graduated from the College of William and mary summa cum laude (Phi Beta Kappa) and earned my Masters degree in teaching a year later. I also have experience working at a children's enrichment camp for at-need kids in the summertime. I teach 120 students in the subject of History and I love thinking of creative and engaging ways to entertain and teach children!
