I am a graduate of Edinboro University. I received my Bachelor of Science in Middle Level Mathematics. Since graduation, I have worked as an Assistant Director of Childcare, handling the before and after care supervision of school-age children. I have been a substitute in an inner-city school district and currently occupy a position in the same district as a 7th grade math teacher. Although I am certified to teach a broad range of subjects, math and science are my most passionate. I love seeing how the world can come into a logical order and reasoning through numbers and scientific observations or studies. My family instilled in me the importance of education from a young age. I have seen the effects on my immediate family as well as former acquaintances who did not pursue further education or trade. I believe in instilling these values not only in my own child, but every student who passes through my door.
