As an experienced educator, I embarked on a fulfilling journey on Teachers Pay Teachers after spending five dedicated years teaching in traditional classrooms. Throughout my career, I taught 6th grade and 2nd grade, fostering a love of learning among my students. However, after the birth of my daughter in April 2023, I decided to take a break from full-time teaching. It was during this time that I discovered TpT—an online platform that allowed me to share my expertise, resources, and knowledge with educators worldwide.

My passion for education and helping others thrive led me to pursue a Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Social Work from the University of Iowa. This interdisciplinary foundation allowed me to develop a deep understanding of student behavior and the importance of individualized support. Eager to expand my impact in the field of education, I pursued a Master's degree in Elementary Education from Loyola University Chicago, where I gained valuable insights into curriculum development, instructional strategies, and educational psychology. Equipped with a diverse set of qualifications, I hold K-9 certification, reflecting my ability to teach across a broad range of grade levels. Additionally, my passion for social studies led me to earn a social studies endorsement, allowing me to integrate this important subject seamlessly into my lessons. Moreover, my English as a Second Language (ESL) certification enables me to effectively support students with diverse linguistic backgrounds, ensuring inclusive learning environments. Lastly, my International Baccalaureate (IB) certification demonstrates my commitment to providing a globally-focused education, promoting critical thinking and international-mindedness.
