Academics

I enjoy: Listening to the Cleveland Orchestra at Blossom Music Center, Spending time with friends and family, Plays & Musicals, Reading, Decorating

I want my students to:
Know God, and not just know about God.
Have a personal relationship with Him, and show the world who God is as they live their lives as students and eventually as adults.
Be grateful 

I teach because:
I am passionate about learning,
It brings me so much joy to watch understanding flash across the faces of my students.
I love building relationships with my students
I love speaking life and encouragement into my students.
I love the opportunity to teach my students to know that they are valuable and deeply loved by God, and to watch them learn to truly believe that, as they grow and mature

My students have taught me:
We all need grace to succeed
To not take life too seriously…there is always room for fun
To laugh
Preparation is key

A verse I love: Deuteronomy 32:2

I started teaching at GHA in 2009. I began my teaching career at Faith Christian Academy in Wilmot, OH where I taught from 1994-2000. I took up teaching again at United Christian School in Middlefield, OH where I taught from 2004 to 2009.
