Personal Life

Originally from Wheatfield, I was involved with the Sanborn Fire Company Band and the Girl Scouts of Niagara County growing up. My first teaching experiences came through scouts - first as a program aide and later at Zoar Valley Camp as a Riding Apprentice and then the Assistant Riding Director. While I haven't ridden in years, I still love horses. My other hobbies include reading, baking, and crochet. In grad school was also part of the Buffalo Tango Society. My husband and I both love camping, though we haven't done much since before our three sons were born. We hope to get back into it as our boys grow up.
After 13 years teaching in the southern part of Erie County, I'm very happy to join the team at Starpoint and be back in Niagara County.
