Hello My Name Is...

I am a 1997 and 2001 graduate of The University of Toledo with an undergraduate degree in Elementary Education 1-8 and a masters degree in Reading K-12.  This is my 16th year of teaching, with the past eleven being here at ILS.  My first five years of teaching were in the inner-city of Toledo.  I spent the first fifteen years of my career teaching middle school language arts before moving to the elementary.  I am now a 4th grade math, science, and social studies teacher.  I have also coached volleyball in the past.

I am a wife and a mother of two wonderful little girls.  I am a HUGE Buckeye fan and watch every football game.  Go BUCKS!!!  I love reading, playing volleyball, and spending time with my family.
