My central goal is to create a classroom family that supports and challenges academic and spiritual growth. My classroom is a structured and predictable place. My methodology incorporates manipulatives, movement, art, and music to facilitate learning. I incorporate religious education across the curriculum and focus on virtue formation as a secure route to grow academically, socially, and spiritually.  

I feel called to the vocation of teaching young children because they exhibit the same tremendous wonder I feel when learning new things. I like the rhythm of the school year and being able to incorporate and celebrate the liturgical calendar along with my students.
