I was born and raised in New Smyrna Beach, Florida. I enjoy both indoor and outdoor activities, such as reading, biking, kayaking, and travelling! Since I was in 2nd grade, I have wanted to be a teacher! My love of teaching Kindergarten was developed during my Senior Internship through Daytona State College. There, I majored in Elementary Education and have since received my Reading Endorsement, ESOL Endorsement and ESE K-12 Certification. I have taught Kindergarten at Ivy Hawn Charter School of the Arts since it's opening, and I cannot wait to share this exciting year with my new families and students!
