Caring and dedicated educator with over 5 years of experience in teaching and school leadership, including a year as Vice Principal. Passionate about creating a nurturing, inclusive environment where every student feels seen, supported, and inspired to grow. I believe in teaching with heart, encouraging curiosity, and building meaningful connections with students and staff. After a beautiful time away on maternity leave, I’m excited to return to the classroom with renewed energy and love for this work.
