I am amazed by all my students on daily basis. I treasure the moments in teaching when
I realize that I have reached my students not only in an academic way but on a much deeper social and emotional level.
I am inspired when my students work together to accomplish something and become aware that they can make a difference in the world.
The spring semester of first grade is very exciting. |

I spend my summers playing guitar and writing songs. I love to run and walk at Radnor Lake.
I also enjoy traveling to the beach and swimming in the ocean. |
