I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education in 2008.  In October of 2016, I received my Master's Degree in Reading and Literacy from Walden University.  I have taught for Milwaukee Public Schools, in Costa Rica, North Carolina, and now in my hometown of Wauwatosa.  I enjoy continuing my professional development with reading that is relevant to my everyday teaching.  I truly love teaching and giving students the tools they need to succeed in today's world.
