Hobbies

Outside the classroom, I find joy in the simple and meaningful moments that fuel my creativity and balance. I’m an avid reader who loves diving into stories that inspire and challenge me, whether it’s fiction, professional development, or anything in between. Traveling is another passion—I enjoy exploring new places, cultures, and experiences that broaden my perspective and bring fresh energy to my teaching. Most importantly, I cherish spending time with my four children. Whether we’re adventuring together or enjoying quiet family time, they are my greatest source of inspiration and laughter.
