I am so excited to be here in Tinton Falls! I have been in the education field for 12 years. I completed my masters degree in teaching from Fordham University Graduate School of Education in New York City. After completion of my masters, I taught middle school Language Arts for six years, and while I loved it, it has always been a personal goal to be a member of the administrative team where I can successfully reach both students and staff. Working with children of all ages and fostering their growth and development is my sincere passion, and I am truly grateful that you have chosen The Learning Experience. When I am not at TLE, you can find me reading, spending time with friends and family, and playing with my puppy, Panino!

I have a Bachelor's degree in education and counseling from Liberty University and have taught preschool for 10 years. As much as I love teaching, I am excited to start my journey in administration. This gives me the opportunity to spend time with not only the children but the families as well. When I am not at TLE, I like to spend time with my husband and my two children and I really enjoying reading and cooking!
