As a little girl, I always knew I wanted to be a teacher. At holiday parties I would be with all the younger kids reading a story or organizing a game. My goal as a teacher is to make sure my students are having fun while learning. As a young reader and someone with dyslexia I also struggled with reading. 

A fun fact about me: I once bought a 26 foot RV, named her Rita, and kept her for 2 years having all kinds of fun adventures with my family!
