Go-to school snack: Microwave popcorn with parmesan cheese!
My favorite part of the school day: When I get to see all of my students on their way in the building in the morning!
A student moment that always makes me smile: When a student intentionally finds me to share in their excitement about their improvement.
What “showing up” means to me: Showing up to me means maintaining an open door policy for all students who need a space to be themselves, and always addressing students with kindness and empathy.
One thing I hope every student knows: You are capable of much more than you know, and you have me in your corner!

Go-to school snack: My go-to snack is white cheddar popcorn.
My favorite part of the school day: My favorite part of the school day is when I have informal conversations with students. They always set a positive tone for the day.
A student moment that always makes me smile: When students verbally express that they enjoy working with me.
What showing up means to me: It means being fully present, listening carefully and creating a space where everyone feels safe and welcomed.
One thing I hope every student knows: I hope every student knows they are capable! That mistakes don’t define them; effort and kindness matter more than perfection!
