Welcome!  I teach multiple Language Arts classes here at Groves High School including English 10, Honors English 10, Film in Literature, Readings in Literature, and others depending on the trimester.  I have a B.A. in Creative Writing from the University of Michigan, and my teaching certificate includes an English Major and Physical Education minor for grades 7 - 12.  My Master's Degree is in the Art of Teaching from Marygrove College.  I am passionate about reading and teaching reading in my classes.  I make it a point to attend the Michigan Reading Association's Conference each year where I receive valuable teaching ideas and stay current on educational trends. 

I reside in Howell, MI with my husband and four children.  As I juggle both roles of being a mom and teacher, I am part-time, arriving at school around 10 am and teaching periods 3, 4, and 5.  I am unavailable during X-block, but happy to see and help students during A-lunch or after school by appointment.  I am in room B-5.
