Tell us about yourself!

I have 4 years of teaching experience, I have taught 1st grade, 5th grade and currently am in my second year in 4th. I have always wanted to be a teacher because I feel all kids need that one person in their lives to be there no matter what. I love to make an impact with my students and build a community where they feel safe.

Who is your favorite NHL® player and why?

My favorite NHL player is Logan Thompson! I love the way he plays and how much he helps out in the community.

What is your favorite part of the Future Goals™program? How do you see STEM in the game of hockey?

I love that it is hockey related as our classroom is hockey themed. I also love that it has students do things at their pace while teaching them the skills and that it is math and science.

If you played hockey, what position would you play and why?

I would probably play defense. They get to help in all areas of the game and are relied on to be strong to keep the game going.
