My inspiration to become a teacher was that I wanted to have a positive, inspiring impact on children's lives. I just love how everything is so exciting to young children, and, you get to see the most mundane things, through their eyes. Finding a bug in the playground, making art with leaves, etc. I love the “Aha” moment when I child’s eyes light up because they understand something new or try something for the first time. I chose to teach in a Montessori environment, because it is known for individually paced learning and fostering independence, as well as encouraging empathy, a passion for social justice, and a joy in lifelong learning all of which are important to me.
I am very much family grounded, therefore, I LOVE spending time with my family and my friends. I have two step-daughters, and three wonderful step-grandchildren. I grew up spending lot time with my own grandma, who was very creative, and where I gathered lots of fun crafts and arts inspiration from. I now love painting, drawing, and pastels, because of her. I also enjoy spending time in my kitchen cooking, playing tennis, taking walks, traveling, and recently I discovered Pilates!
