I was born and raised in New York but have called Davenport, FL my home for the past 12 years. I graduated from Florida Southern College with a Bachelors in Elementary Education and went on to obtain my Masters in Educational Leadership from The University of West Florida.   I had the opportunity to complete my student teaching internship right here at Loughman Oaks Elementary School and was then hired as a Kindergarten teacher. Throughout my career I have taught several grade levels, worked as an Instructional Science Coach and as the Title I Facilitator. I am thrilled to now serve as Assistant Principal.
