Professional Background
I taught in New York City for twelve years. I first taught the second grade for the Diocese of Brooklyn. I spent five years teaching the fifth grade and the rest of the time teaching general music for the New York City Board of Education. After a few years at home raising my sons, I went back into the workforce part time when they attended Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic School. I currently teach general music k-8.
Faith in Action
Teaching in a Catholic school has given me the opportunity to serve the Lord.
Favorite Teaching Moment
I coordinated a Christmas program with the older students and organized our school's first Spring Sing with the younger students.
Favorite Food
Like any New Yorker, I still love my bagels/Kaiser rolls, pizza, and pasta.
Favorite Activity Outside of School
I played collegiate tennis and still love playing for fun.
Fun Fact About Me
I'm a NY Yankees fan.
