Those that know me call me the "Eager Educator." I have been teaching now for approximately 17 years. I come from a long line of educators in my family who inspired me to be the teacher I am today. I have had experience in teaching and educational leadership. I take great pride in instructing and ensuring the success of others academically. One of the most rewarding things an educator can experience is having someone to say "thank you" for assisting them through an academic milestone he or she once viewed as an obstacle.

I use a variety of instructional strategies as I deliver to the student. I ensure that he or she gets the most out of their learning or enrichment experience. I look forward to illuminating the light inside of my clients during our sessions. I declare and expect nothing less than excellence!
