educator at Central Bucks School District
Greater Philadelphia Area
I currently teach 4th grade regular education. I have also taught second grade and gifted classes. I am passionate about teaching and learning for all people and try to model those behaviors in my professional and personal life. I am a Discovery STAR Educator and integrate technology in my classroom whenever it makes pedagogical sense. Writing is one of my passions and I am proud to be a fellow in the Pennsylvania Writing and Literature Project. I enjoy helping pre-service and beginning educators as they start their careers.
