Bio:
Hi Parents and Students,
A little about myself:
I love my job and feel privileged to engage with intellectually curious students every year. I have taught English at Hillside High for eleven years and have previously taught at Orange High School.
A true "Jersey Girl", I grew up in Essex County and have graduated from two state colleges. I have a BA in English from The College of New Jersey and a MA in Writing Studies from Kean University. One day I hope to earn a PhD and to be a published children's book author. I work hard so that my love of literature and writing and my passion for teaching translates into a quality classroom experience for all my students.
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
-Nelson Mandela
