Welcome!
Prior to teaching I was a paraprofessional in a variety of special education classrooms; I had the privilege to work with many devoted educators who inspired me to teach. I received a Bachelor’s Degree from Lesley University and M.ED from A.I.C. I am certified in Special Education and English. I am very passionate and dedicated to our student success.
Our TLC program is committed to students graduating as full-functioning adults, ready to participate in a global economy and ready to take on challenges that will confront them. I hope that you will be engaged in the process as well, by involving yourself in your student’s learning and overall academic process.
