About The Teacher
It seems to me that my decision to become a teacher was predetermined when I was a little girl. I always enjoyed babysitting and teaching kids younger than me. My decision to enroll in University of Hartford's Early Childhood Education program was easy. Teaching seemed to be second nature for me. After graduating, I worked at High Meadows School in Roswell as a second and third grade teacher before coming to Sarah Smith. Upon coming to Sarah Smith I was excited to continue applying my teaching skills through the IB programme. In 2007, I made a career leap from the classroom to the computer lab as the Sarah Smith's Technology Specialist. I completed my Masters of Education in the field of Technology at Lesley University Febuary 2009. I look forward to working with your students to advance them in the field of technology. My husband and I live in Dunwoody with our twin boys Brandon and Colin and, our little Shih Tzu Maisie. In our free time we enjoy spending every minute we have with Brandon and Colin watching them grow and change.

Mission
My goal in teaching this technology program is to provide a challenging yet enthusiastic environment that is based on standards set by the Quality Core Curriculum for the state of Georgia and Georgia Performance Standards in combination with the IB concepts. I have included some of the academics of the regular classrooms in order for the students to have a well-rounded technology curriculum. In addition, I am teaching typing skills to each of the grade levels preparing the students for their future with technology.
