Fun Facts

One of my passions is music and creating. I love taking life experiences and turning it into art that can inspire and motivate others. I have been playing the piano since I was seven years old. I grew up in WI and enjoy cooking.

About Me

I have two kiddos who love sports basketball and football. I attended UW Milwaukee and have a degree in Education. I graduated in 2013. My goal is to utilize personal experiences, academic knowledge, and skills in behavioural science to bring about positive change in the lives of people and communities locally and globally.

Experience

I have experience working in after-school homework help programs as well as experience working with middle and high school students as an advocate to ensure academic success. I have attended and assisted in IEP meetings and identified supportive services for students. Working with Frog will allow me to positively impact students, and encourage them to identify their strengths and weaknesses. By focusing on positive reinforcements we can turn their weaknesses into strengths.

Approach

I believe that in order to inspire and motivate, you have to meet students where they are and tap into their interests to encourage them. Making subjects relatable is essential to building confidence and growth. I’m very patient, firm, and fair and believe consistency is essential to helping students learn and grow. Identifying supports via parents and teachers is helpful in encouraging students to strive for their best despite whatever challenges they may face.
