I have worked for St Louis Public Schools for 18 years. I was a teacher for 16 years. Last year I served as the Reading Specialist at Mann. This year I am so excited about being the Academic Instructional Coach.

I believe each student who walks into Mann is a unique and diverse learner with their own strengths and dreams.  As an instructional coach, my goal is to facilitate community, innovation, critical thinking, and a love of learning! I love being a student myself. I have a Masters of Education with a Reading Certification from the University of Missouri St Louis and  a Masters in Teaching English as a Second Language from Webster.

I love spending time with my family! I also enjoy hiking, swimming, cooking, and playing board games. My favorite TV show is Odd Squad. My favorite author is Kate DiCamillo.

Our school theme this year is Mann where curiosity meets exploration.

I am so excited about exploring and learning with you this year!
