I began teaching kindergarten at St. Thomas More Catholic School in 2000. Prior to moving to Chapel Hill, I taught pre-k at Meridian Academy of the Arts located just outside of Indianapolis in Greenwood, IN. In 1998 I graduated from Indiana University in Bloomington with a degree in Early Childhood Education, after completing my student teaching on the Navajo reservation near Bloomfield, New Mexico. While teaching at STM, I decided to go to graduate school at UNC and in 2005 I earned a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Intervention and Family Support with a Birth-Kindergarten emphasis.
It means the world to me that my 2 sons attend St. Thomas More and have teachers that are as invested in their growth, success, and futures as I am. I feel very blessed to have found my place here at STM in such a faith filled, family oriented community where creativity and the exploration of new ideas are encouraged and highly valued.
