I am a pug person.
I am a daughter.
I am a sister.

I am an organizer.
I am a teacher.
I taught first grade at Winkelman Elementary School for seven years when I graduated from National Louis University. In 2000, I started my career as part of the District 30 family as the Enrichment teacher for both Language Arts and Math. From 2000-2013 I taught the 1st - 5th grade gifted math program at Wescott and Willowbrook. Although I loved teaching the Navigate Program, in 2013 I decided that it was time for me to return to the classroom. First grade is an exciting grade to teach! The children make a tremendous amount of growth and it creates a foundation for continued learning!
