Professional Career
I hold a Level I teaching certification in Business, Computer and Information Technology. I currently teach “Computer Concepts” to 6th, 7th and 8th graders at Derry Area Middle School (Derry, PA)! Prior to working at the middle school level I held a long-term substitute position at Gateway High School(Monroeville, PA). Surprisingly, I fell in love the middle school environment and I hope to continue my career here at Derry!
Educational Background
I received my Bachelor’s degree in Business Education from Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP) in 2013. I am currently working toward a Masters of Education in Learning Design and Technology at Penn State!
Personal Interests
Outside of my professional career and educational interests I work part time as a dance instructor/choreographer at a local dance studio. I have been teaching dance for about 6 years now! I’m also an avid Pittsburgh sports fan! I love venturing into the city and watching the games with family and friends. I also love to travel! My fiance and I have a “bucket list” type idea where we travel to a new US city every year. This year it’s Chicago!
