I enjoy coaching basketball and have done so previously at Bella Vista (3rd Place in 2006 and Consolation in 2007).
Family Life
I am married to my wonderful husband Kevin, of 6 years, and have a one-year-old daughter, named Katie, whom I adore.  We have one dog, Tipper.
Teaching Philosophy
Children should be exposed to hands-on experiences that peak their interests and make them desire to learn more.  I also believe parents play a key role in helping their child succeed in their school/lifelong endeavors.

My favorite thing about working with preschoolers is their enthusiasm to learn and the way they look at the world with its endless possibilities.  Plus, they don’t sweat the small stuff (like playing with worms and splashing in mud puddles); they relish in it!!!

The art of teaching is the art of assisting in discovery.
