I graduated from Boston College in 2003 with a degree in Studio Art and a minor in Education. After graduation, I returned to this area and began taking classes at West Chester University, where I earned my post-baccalaureate certifications in Elementary Education, Middle School Math, and Middle School Science. In May of 2011, I graduated from West Chester with a Masters degree in Elementary Education. I have been teaching at Saints Simon and Jude since September 2006; prior to coming here, I taught preschool for three years.
