This is my second year working at Cross. Last year I worked as a TA in the Cross Cat Program. I began my teaching career in 2004 teaching 7^th grade science in Marana, AZ. A few years later, we moved to New Hampshire to raise a family. While in NH I worked at both elementary and middle school levels. Working with middle school students is my favorite, it is such a fun and challenging age! I love science and I am eager to share my knowledge with my students. I am committed to helping each of my students be successful, achieve their goals and to develop a love of learning.

Outside of school my husband and I have four active teenagers and two crazy dogs. Most evenings and weekends you will find me at a park either walking my dogs, or watching soccer, softball, baseball or football. When I do find some quiet time, I love to curl up with a good book.
