"Children do not care how much you know until they know how much you care."

- Theodore Roosevelt

Welcome to our class page! I have the pleasure of being your child's intermediate teacher. I have been teaching since 2006 for Yonkers Public Schools and have taught many grades at the elementary level throughout the years, with most of my years spent at the 5th and 6th grade levels. I have an M.S. in childhood education and am certified in early childhood, childhood, early childhood - special education and childhood - special education. I also have an M.A. in Journalism.

Teaching is a work of heart to me. I teach the whole child and truly relish seeing academic as well as social-emotional growth in my students. I look forward to an exciting and successful year with my classroom family!
