“Whatever you keep to yourself, you lose; whatever you give away, you keep
forever!” -anonymous
This quote has been my motto since my senior year in high school. I have
taken it with me through the six years I was a swim coach, to college where I
was my sorority President, and to where I am today, which is starting my third
year, teaching at St. Josaphat School! Therefore, everything I do in my life,
I do with passion and with excitement. I strive to “live life to the
fullest” by exploring the world and taking lots of pictures. My classroom
will be filled with pictures. Teaching is another way I share my gifts with
the world. I feel that teaching is a very fulfilling career. It is something
that challenges me, keeps me youthful, and gives me spirit! I graduated from
The University of Dayton in Ohio with a degree in Middle Childhood Education
with endorsements in math and science. I am very excited to use all the
resources I have in my classroom. We will be doing many experiments using the
lab equipment, using the math manipulatives, and many resource books.
I would also like to share with you a little bit about my family life. My
family is my rock. I was born and raised in Cincinnati, OH. My parents are
the most selfless and loving people I know. I also have three wonderful
brothers; Nick (26), Roger (25), David (19). Growing up with three brothers
has allowed me to become well rounded and strong-willed. I would not be who I
am today without my family and their unconditional support.
I believe that having a quality education is very important. Education does
not only involve the academics, but it also involves the development of the
child’s values and beliefs.
