A little about me!- I have wanted to be a teacher since I was in second grade. My teacher Mrs. Peggy Jenkins was amazing, and I wanted to be just like her!
- I love food! My favorite food is anything Italian! I love making and going out for some good Italian food!
- I LOVE the STEELERS!
- I consider my students as my children. When people ask me how many kids I have, I usually will say 25. I feel I am their mom away from mom.
- The best compliment I can get is when a student calls me mom...and of course, I answer! :-)
