I began my teaching career in Gloucester Massachusetts and enjoyed six years of working in the O'Maley Middle School (grades 6-8). I then spent the next eight years teaching Language Arts to 7th and 8th graders at Newburyport's Nock Middle School. My family and I moved to North Hampton from Newburyport in 2005 and have enjoyed the benefit of a great school system! I have two children attending the North Hampton School: Maeve is in 3rd grade and William is in Kindergarten.
I love teaching 8th graders Language Arts and United States History because they bring a powerful sense of optimism and hope for the future. They are on their way to high school and many of them are discovering the positive impact that they can have on the world around them. I feel very fortunate to be part of the "discovering" process with them each and every day!
