I graduated for SUNY Brockport in 1996 and received a Master's in Education from Nazareth College in 2002. I taught third grade for the City of Rochester before staying home to raise my children. I held a long term substitute position in Kindergarten for Bemus Point Elementary before attaining my current position as a Kindergarten Teacher at C.C. Ring Elementary School. I have been with Jamestown City Schools for 5 years. I live in the Village of Bemus Point with my husband and two children, Gavin and Cady. I have a dog, Tuffy, a cat, Bogey, and two fish, Bill and Bob. I enjoy playing golf, skiing, hiking, and reading.
