Making a difference in children’s lives is what means the most to me. I hope to give them a sense of belonging, compassion, and understanding. I strive to offer them a structured environment, while still giving a family feel to our classroom. I am still friends with some of my earliest students! I believe that every child you care for teaches you something new. This allows for not only personal growth, but professional growth as well.

I live in the Ham with my husband, twin boys, and our two dogs, Tuukka and Luna. Being with family and friends is what makes me happiest, whether it’s margaritas and chips or sporting events—sometimes both! I enjoy the beach, gardening, and pickling vegetables in the summer.

I love to help children grow and learn.

As a teacher, I am committed to making a positive difference with each child, one smile at a time.

Outside of work, I love cycling. I ride in support of MS each year by participating in a 60 mile bike ride on Martha’s Vineyard. When I’m not on my bike, I love to hang out with my family. I have two boys, Silas and Titus, who both love soccer, and we enjoy going to their soccer games on the weekends.

I bring lots of hugs to the classroom! If the children need comfort and a boost of love, I am here for it. I love watching them grow from babies, all the way to prekindergarten.

I’m from Framingham. I like to read, listen to Taylor Swift, and snuggle with my dog!

My favorite thing about working with young children is their little individual personalities. I hope to give the children lots of self-confidence and a strong sense of safety, knowing they can always come to me for anything they need. Before coming to First Circle, I worked in a nursing home setting, doing physical therapy and housekeeping, where I soaked in a lot of knowledge about all kinds of medical issues, procedures, and medications. That work gave me the ability to problem-solve, redirect, and pay attention to several things at once.

I live in Charlton with my fiancé, and in my free time I love any activity that involves my grandchildren, especially going to the beach with them.
