She brings a wealth of experience from her career as an educator, having served as a classroom teacher in both the early childhood and elementary school settings. She is also a skilled and passionate art teacher and is eager to share her love of creativity with the children in her class. She has completed both the second and third grade intensive programs through the Center for Anthroposophy in Wilton, New Hampshire.
She says, "My twenty-year career as an educator has given me the opportunity to work with diverse student populations, concentrate on early childhood instruction, and specialize in art education. I was drawn to Linden Waldorf School because of the emphasis on creativity, imaginative play, and educating the whole child—head, heart, and hands. It is my desire to combine my instructional strengths with my creativity and compassion to meet the educational needs of children."
