Hello all,

Welcome to my page! I started my teaching career at Saint Ann School and it has been an exciting five years! Before I became a teacher, I received my undergraduate degree in American History at the College of Charleston, Charleston, South Carolina (2008). From there I decided to pursue my Master's Degree in Irish Women's History at Queen's University Belfast, Belfast, Northern Ireland (2009). During my four years in Ireland, I traveled extensively through the United Kingdom and Europe. After returning from abroad, I went on to receive my teaching certification through NJCU and NPTNJ.  I have a passion for bringing history and social studies to life, making the classroom fun and engaging for all students.
