I started teaching at Berlin Brothersvalley School District in the fall of 2001.  I obtained my bachelor's of science degree in Education of Persons with Hearing Impairment from Indiana University of Pennsylvania.  After employment at BBSD, I decided to further my education with a master's degree in Education of Exceptional Persons from Indiana University of Pennsylvania.  I am also deemed by Pennsylvania Department of Education as a highly qualified teacher of  middle level language arts and middle level mathematics.  I am also only nine credits away from a second masters as a reading specialist.

Due to my versatile degrees, I have held various teaching positions in the school district.  This year is my twenty-third year at Berlin Brothersvalley.  This year my position is Kindergarten - Third grade life skills.
