I am proud to be one of the lead teachers with the Service Stars after school program and summer camp. I have over 20 years of experience working with children of all ages. After earning my bachelor’s degree in Education, I taught middle school mathematics for 7 years in North Carolina and Ohio. During my years as a classroom teacher I also obtained a master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction. After leaving full time teaching, I continued to actively volunteer with numerous school and community organizations like Girl Scouts and Cub Scouts. Growing up, I regularly participated in a variety of service organizations and these experiences had a profound impact on my world perspective. I am passionate about helping young people learn how to give back to the community and widen their own world perspectives.
