Master Teacher

I’m a military wife and mother of a 13-year-old son. I’ve been in the field of education and different teacher support roles for over 17 years, holding several different positions within Jefferson Parish Schools, such as 2^nd -5^th grade classroom teacher, reading interventionist, Teacher Leader Fellow (TLF), and Master Teacher (MT). I earned a Masters in Educational Leadership from L.S.U. and I’m an alumna of Bridgedale Elementary. I’ve embraced the Tier 1 curricula; teaching and modeling lessons for Guidebook, CKLA, and Eureka.  I’ve also worked with our district ELA Coordinator workgroups to develop the scope and sequence and supplemental cold read assessments for 5^th grade Guidebook. I’m looking forward to working with a new group of teachers, students, and administration to continue to make a positive impact on student achievement. I consider myself to be a life-long learner and will take this new opportunity at Bridgedale Elementary to continue to grow as both an educator and instructional leader.
