Hometown: New Milford, New Jersey

I am excited to work at the Academy because: I love being able to share my faith with my students and teach them about Jesus.  I love to take them to mass and grow in faith together as a family.  Working at the Academy makes my heart full and is where I am the happiest!

Teaching Philosophy: I believe all students can be successful learners who need individual attention and different learning styles to reach all their needs. My classroom is a positive, happy, and encouraging learning environment where students can feel safe and comfortable to learn, grow, and make mistakes.

Fun Fact: I speak three languages which are English, Portuguese, and Spanish.

When I am not in the classroom: With my three-year-old son, Matthew, and my husband.  I also enjoy coloring, crafting, and decorating anything!

Ask me about: My childhood and family!

Personal Motto: Never give up and always learn from your mistakes!
