About Me

I truly believe there is a book for everyone and a writer in all of us.

I am a public school educator and a Licensed Professional Counselor with a School Counseling endorsement. I have worked in education for 23 years as a teacher, counselor, instructional coach, and an Instructional Support Specialist. I am currently working on gaining my School Administrator Certification in the hopes of continuing my leadership journey.

This website is a collection of the examples of my work that I am most proud of. It is also a place where I share my ideas through my writing. I am not a professional writer by any stretch, but I have always loved to write and I have found joy in blogging for fun for several years.

I am an avid reader and I love to share the joy of reading with others. I truly believe there is a book for everyone and a writer in all of us. I believe good teachers help students find both. There is no better gift we give our students than helping them see themselves through books and find themselves in their writing.

I love my work and I love my home-life, too! I live with my husband and two sons. My husband and I enjoy every minute of cheering at our boys’ athletic events or just listening to them talk about their busy lives. I love epic walks, reading great books, and spending my summers on the dock. My perfect evening is relaxing on the patio with my boys until the sun sets with just the right 80’s rock ballad playing softly in the background.
