Teacher Ambassador
There are two major reasons why Manchester Public Schools has my whole heart as an educator. First is the beautiful diversity of the children and families we serve, and second is the district's commitment to equity for all, especially the most marginalized identities within our community.

Why I Teach
I have been an educator for 22 years and have been working with children for over 31 years. I have taught in five different districts, including Willimantic, New Britain, and Hartford and have taught every grade from Kindergarten to eighth. Since coming to Manchester ten years ago, I have only taught my beloved third grade. I love the transformation I see with this age group and would not trade it for the world. I have a degree in applied linguistics and am deeply committed to multilingual education. There are two major reasons why Manchester Public Schools has my whole heart as an educator.
