I am so excited to be joining the Bateman community! I have previously taught at Ascension Catholic School and Latin School of Chicago. Last year I taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade remotely, and before that I taught 1st grade. My teaching philosophy is to inspire students to want to learn, encourage them to share their interests and ideas, and to help them be successful. I have an innate passion for elementary education. I inspire students to learn by taking their questions, diving into them and researching the answers together. I encourage students to share their interests and ideas by connecting with every student and looking at the curriculum through their eyes. Every student is an individual and building a relationship with each student and learning about their interests and cultures is so important.

Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my fiancé and my two dogs. I have two Boxers, Lily and Ainsley! I also enjoy doing yoga and traveling whenever possible.
