Teacher Bio

Hi there, and thanks for taking an interest in me!

Originally from Canada, I moved to the United States when I was a kid, and have lived in Illinois, New Jersey, and spent most of my life living in Cleveland, Ohio! Now, I’m proud to call myself a citizen of Tempe, Arizona!

I am a first year teacher, having just graduated from Ashland University with a degree in Integrated Social Studies Education and hold licenses in both Ohio and Arizona! I have thousands of hours in the classroom, teaching as young as third grade all the way to seniors in high school, as well as Mild-Moderate Intervention classrooms.

A little more about me as a person is that I am happily married to my high school sweetheart, and we have no kids or pets as of right now.

My hobbies, on top of being a passionate student of history and civics, include reading (I collect books!), cooking, travelling, and video games (And no, as I tell all of my students, I will not add you on Xbox).

I am dedicated to being a lifelong learner, and will be pursuing my Master’s degree as soon as I am settled in at Paseo Pointe!

Looking forward to an incredible and inspiring year with you all!
