About Me
I was born in New York, and grew up in Northeastern Pennsylvania. I earned my teaching degree at East Stroudsburg University, PA. I have taught in PA, Virginia, Texas, and of course North Carolina. I've taught most of the grades, including pre-K through eighth grade. This year will be my twenty-third year in Wake County, and twenty-first at Salem. I have two daughters, one in Seattle, one in Fuquay with a husband and a grandson, and I live nearby, in Cary, with my husband. I love teaching children and working as partners with their parents. I always say it's a privilege to serve the families of the school where I work.
I make sure the students learn the curriculum to the best of their ability, while trying to make it fun and interesting. I find that the kids always help me to do this with their hard work, interesting questions, and ideas. Each day and every school year is a new adventure! I enjoy reading, gardening, and traveling with my family.
