Summary

I am a passionate educator who has dedicated a number of years to the education of girls. I have had the privilege of leading and motivating a team of enthusiastic teachers and guiding our interns and new teachers to reach their full potential. I have worked hard to establish a very good working relationship with the Parents at St Katharine's and am a huge advocate for working to establish relationships within our community. Reading is a passion of mine and I deliberately and intentionally share that love with the children I teach.
