As a teacher I strive to find and nourish that genius in every student through creative teaching with a global perspective.  My experience over the past 20 years, teaching in the St. Paul School District, has reinforced in me the importance of engaging the individuality within each student in my classroom.  My goal is to create a trusting, positive classroom environment for each child. The 2020-2021 school year will mark my sixth year at Groveland Park Elementary.
