Meet your teacher
Hello! Olá! Yasou! Ni hao! Barev! Hola! Zdravo!
I grew up in South Bend, Indiana, and went to college at Indiana University in Bloomington: GO HOOSIERS! My senior year I completed a portion of my student teaching in Quito, Ecuador, and then when I returned I decided to move to Chicago where I still live today. When I'm not at school, I enjoy playing in a recreational soccer league, reading, trying new restaurants and activities in the city, hanging out with friends, and attempting to cook...it's a work in progress. ;)
After graduation, I worked in CPS for one year
as a kindergarten intervention specialist before coming to Lyon School in 2013. I taught kindergarten my first year here, and then have taught first grade ever since. I'm extremely excited to be teaching 1st grade again--the children make such tremendous growth both socially and academically!! It's amazing.
I am looking forward to meeting another group of dedicated, supportive Lyon families! Any questions?? Just ask! I love to chat!
