I am a Charlotte County native, and I care deeply about our community. I graduated from the University of Florida in 2007, then began my career in Hillsborough County, FL.

Throughout my career, I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd Grade, 4th Grade, 5th Grade, STEM (K-5th), and Talented & Gifted students. As an educator, I promise to create a classroom environment where children will develop a love for learning and become lifelong learners.

About Me

I was born and raised in Cheshire CT. I graduated from High school in 1978. I played field hockey all during my high school years and earned a partial scholarship to college. During my senior year in college, we won the National Tournament, the first women’s team ever in the state of North Carolina to win a National tournament. I was invited to play in the Olympics that year for the United States.

After college, I went to work for a private high school where I was able to travel with some of the students to Italy and China. I spent several months in each country.

I came home, taught in CT, and married and had 2 girls, Samantha and Jacquelyn. We moved to Florida in 1994. I taught in the Charlotte County School system until retiring in 2017.

I came to Charlotte Preparatory school in the fall of 2017 and loved working here. I gradually became full time and I love the family feeling and the students!
