This is my third year teaching math at St. Agnes. Before coming to St. Agnes, I spent the last 13 years teaching ELA, Math GED Prep, and ESL classes in Springfield District 186. I am married and have two sons, Ian and Colin. My husband and I like playing strategic board games. I also enjoy traveling, camping, and hiking. My favorite part of teaching math is helping students develop a love for the subject. It is my goal to make math interactive and fun. I am passionate not only about math, but also about helping students gain confidence in their skills. I strive to create a classroom culture where students focus on having a growth mindset and persevering when math is tough. In math class, students learn it is ok to make mistakes because they are just another opportunity to learn.
