I grew up in western Pennsylvania and attended Duquesne University in Pittsburgh to receive my B.A. in history and B.S. in secondary social studies education. In 2012, I moved to South Florida for a full-time teaching position. My husband and I were married in the summer of 2013, just before I began teaching at PPCHS. We are animal lovers and have two dogs and a rescued kitty. In my spare time I love baking, reading, pinterest, Steelers football, going to the beach and traveling.
