I grew up in Worthington, MA, and attended R. H. Conwell when I was in elementary school. I then went to middle and high school through Gateway Regional.

I attended Westfield State University for my undergraduate degree. I graduated from Westfield State in 2014 with a Bachelors of Science in Moderate Disabilities PreK-8, and a Bachelors of the Arts with a concentration in math.

After graduating, I was hired as a Special Education Teacher for the Massachusetts Virtual Academy School in Greenfield, MA. There, I worked with students in Kindergarten and 4th-8th grade. At the end of the year in the spring of 2015, I was hired for the position of Special Education Teacher for grades Preschool-6 at R. H. Conwell.

I graduated from Westfield State University in the spring of 2020 with a Master's Degree and license as a Reading Specialist!
