I am a recent transplant to Chicago, by way of Indiana and my hometown, Cincinnati, OH. So far, I am really enjoying living close to the Lake and learning my way around the city! I graduated from University of Evansville with a BS in Elementary Education and an MS in Educational Leadership from Indiana University. Throughout my career, I have been a classroom teacher, Title 1 teacher, administrator, and reading coach. I am trained in Orton-Gillingham for grades K-12, as well as the Stern and Singapore Mathematical approaches. I am passionate about finding the best way for your child to learn and to hopefully love learning. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, nurturing my plants, playing with our dog, and exploring the city on bike and foot. I look forward to partnering with your family to find the best way to encourage your young learner.
