I am very grateful to be joining Soaring Heights as the gifted and talented teacher and can’t wait to get to know the students and families I’ll be working with!

As a lifelong learner and innately curious person, I’ve enjoyed a mix of traditional and non-traditional teaching experiences, having worked as a 4^th grade teacher, tutor, curriculum writer, and environmental educator. I received my undergraduate degree in English from Indiana University and have a Master’s degree in Elementary Education from the University of Phoenix.

Outside of the classroom, I enjoy writing, reading, hiking, camping, and exploring new places. My husband and I have two young daughters, and we find Erie to be a great place to raise our family.
