I am a graduate of Mount Saint Joseph University and Xavier University. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Masters in Education. I have been an Intervention Specialist for 18 years! I am passionate about getting to know my students and understanding what they know as well as getting to know where they struggle. I am very passionate about reading and phonics. I enjoy helping students grow confident in their abilities and begin making progress. I believe in the importance of understanding and caring for the whole child.
