Biography

I started teaching at Warwick in 2022, but have been an Elementary Autistic Support teacher since 2010. I grew up in Pittsburgh and received my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Clarion University.  I later went back to school for Special Education and received my teaching degree from Millersville University.  I taught Autistic Support at a private school for 10 years, and then accepted a position as a Special Education Coach.  Although I enjoyed training and coaching new teachers, I returned to teaching because I missed being in the classroom working with students and helping them reach their potential. This has been a passion of mine for over 20 years.
