About Me:

This is my 19th year teaching in District 70!  Rockland has been my home for the past 18 years.  I have taught 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade.  This year I will be starting a new role teaching English Language Learners.  I am excited to work with the ELL students at both Rockland and Highland Schools.  I have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Illinois, and a Master's Degree in Teaching and Leadership from St. Xavier.  

I grew up in Libertyville just like many of my students!  I went to Butterfield and Highland before graduating from Libertyville High School.  I now live in Grayslake with my husband Graeme, and our two children- Lucy (8) and Miles (6). 

I love coming to work and helping my students learn new things everyday!
