First and foremost I am a lover of creativity, nature, and learning. Exploring, creating, and learning with my family is my happy place, especially when we are out in nature.

Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that every child is an innate learner, brimming with curiosity and a unique connection to the natural world. I see the environment as a living classroom, rich with lessons that are waiting to be discovered through exploration, sensory experiences, and hands-on learning.

​

Core Principles:

• Child-Centered Learning

• Integrated Curriculum

• Community and Connection

• Foster Curiosity

​

In practice,  my classroom is a dynamic space where students are encouraged to ask questions, pursue their interests, and engage with their surroundings. Whether we’re studying the life cycle of a plant, the physics of a flowing stream, or the geometry of a spider’s web, every lesson is an opportunity to foster a deeper appreciation for nature and to cultivate the innate wonder each child holds within.
