What I Want to be When I Grow Up

I became a parent of a Kindergartener

Sep 10, 2001

My first child entered Kindergarten on September 10, 2001. From this day to the present, I have been a parent volunteer in my children's classrooms and have been a member of the PTO boards. I was on a path, but did not know quite yet where it was leading me.

I began working as a substitute teacher for the town of Chelmsford

Oct 1, 2005

I started working as a part time substitute teacher for the town of Chelmsford in 2005. I was scared to death the first day, which was crazy because it was a second grade class! Really, why was I afraid of a group of 7 year olds? An amusing question, but one I found out had some validity to it! I overcame my fears and continue to substitute today, in both the elementary and middle schools. I love being with the children and making a difference in their lives.

Back to School

Jan 17, 2012

On January 17, 2012, I took the big leap and went back to school. This was the first step to earning my Masters of Education! It's a long road ahead, but I am determined to succeed, earn my degree, and one day have my own classroom.
