Proud to Be a Teacher:

A native to Yonkers, I have a deep connection to our city and to all it has to offer developing minds.  I attended Iona College and received a Bacherlor's degree/certification in Elementary Education.  I always had a passion for teaching and felt a strong devotion to understanding different challenges and techniques children encounter so, I decided to get a Master's degree/certification in Special Education from College of New Rochelle.

I began my career in Mount Vernon school district teaching Special Education and later 3rd grade.  The following year I was fortunate to get a position in Yonkers at School 5 gaining experience and wisdom teaching grades 4-6.  During this time, I was blessed to have stayed home a few years to nuture and care for my 2 daughters.  I then joined the team at Paideia 24 and  I am thankful for the opportunity to work with such young minds where children are excited about school.
