It is a joy being the Gifted and Advanced Academic Specialist at Shepard. I have a master’s degree and certification is in Gifted Education.
My goal is for my students' brains “to sweat,” to love learning, to step into challenges rather than away, to embrace differences and to be kind and patient with themselves as well as others.
When I am not teaching, I enjoy going on walks, doing yoga, watching movies/TV, reading, working in my garden and enjoying friends.
