I have been teaching for 20 years, 13 of those at Laurel Hall; now, I wouldn't teach anywhere else. My experience spans all grades K-8th. The caring environment here is the best there is; my three children attended LH and went on to prestigious Catholic high schools and colleges. My husband of 32 years and I are from Philadelphia. I attended West Chester University and received my BSED with a minor in Special Education. I have taken advantage of every continuing education seminar I am able attend covering a wide range of topics. I enjoy learning new things, and I hope I spread my excitement to my students. In my spare time, I spend a great deal of time reading; I have many friends who are authors. My special interest is animal rescue - we are currently raising Guide Dog puppies.
