I LOVE being creative, especially in planning my curriculum! I've been teaching 2nd and 3rd grades since 2003. I thrive on collaborating with other teachers to create lessons and experiences for my students that empower them to be life-long learners.
Our family is settled in Asheville, NC where I have been teaching 2nd grade at Carolina Day School since 2017! We moved from Champaign, IL where I had been teaching at Countryside School in the 2/3 Classroom from 2008-2017. I taught 2nd grade there for eight years, and then moved up to teaching the 3rd grade. Before that, I taught 3rd grade at St. Andrew's Episcopal School in New Orleans, LA. I absolutely love this age group and all the adventures it leads us on!

My former co-teacher and I embarked on transforming our classroom into a flexible learning environment for the 2016-2017 school year. This was my first time designing a flexible learning classroom, and I have to say I was really in love with the design & opportunities it afforded our scholars (and teachers)!
My current school embraces flexible seating as well!
Here are a few pictures of my classroom!
