Hmmmm...where do I begin?


Let's start with my birthday....it is my favorite holiday, and it is April 18 which falls on report card pick up this year! I am excited, even if I am turning 33 years old!
I have been teaching for 8 years total, and this is my 3rd year at Spencer Technology Academy on the West Side of Chicago. I have been in all grades Pre-K through 3 over the years, and I am currently teaching 2nd grade.

I graduated from Illinois State University with my Batchelor in Science in Education, and in May I will receive my Masters in Education focusing on Reading! Again....I am very excited about this accomplishment! This is going to be a great year for me!

I am a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated where I actively participate in community service. I also participate in Relay For Life which is an annual event to raise money for Cancer Awareness.

Other than that, I love to read, write poetry and have lots of fun especially with my nieces...one of whom is below!
