I've held several positions on my path to the position of becoming Garrettford's School Librarian.

Some of these included Mental Health Counselor, Assistant Librarian for a public library,

First Grade and then Third Grade Classroom Teacher, Title I Reading and Math Teacher for Grades

Kindergarten - Eighth Grade, and Middle School Math Teacher. 

     I love reading, sharing the love of reading, and getting to share that excitement of reading

with all of our elementary school children while introducing them to reading books of all 

different genres and teaching research skills!  In addition to getting to teach our students all things

library, one of my favorite parts of my job is getting to know our students, their reading preferences,

and helping them discover their new favorites while selecting their library books. 

     I am so honored to be able to say that this is my nineteenth year of teaching and my seventh

 year as Garrettford Elementary School's Librarian!
