I am an honors graduate of the College of Our Lady of the Elms where I received my undergraduate degree in Biology, with a Chemistry minor. I later went on to get my Master's Degree in Education from Boston College. I taught on the high school level before being appointed as a high school administrator. Following my marriage, I became an elementary school principal, although I continued to teach Science labs to Middle School students. I make Science and other subjects come alive by showing students how it is an extension of their every day lives. I use a variety of hands on materials and tricks of the trade to help students master material. My greatest joy is seeing the light of understanding brighten a student's eyes!
