I am a 1996 graduate of Cleveland Heights-University Heights High School. I have wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember. Before attending Cleveland State University, I attended Cuyahoga Community College and earned my Associates degree in Business with a concentration in Marketing. I worked for Progressive Insurance in Mayfield Heights, Ohio for several years before returning to school to earn my B.A. in Integrated English Language Arts at Cleveland State University.
While attending my final year at Cleveland State University, I worked on campus as a Structured Learning Assistant (SLA) to help college freshmen improve their writing skills as well as a Success Coach, teaching study habits, organizational skills, and other meta skills critical to success for students.
I am the 2016-2017 recipient of the Donald W. Miller Scholarship from the Cleveland State University English Department as well as a member of the first cohort of Cleveland Foundation Fellows. I was also the recipient of Dean’s List several semesters while attending Cleveland State University as well as at Cuyahoga Community College.
I am a wife of 16 years and mother of two children, aged 9 and 7. I enjoy baking, cooking, reading and writing. I am currently writing my first novel.
Reading is a passion for me and one I hope to instill or awaken in my students.
