About Me:

   When I was six, I met my first grade teacher, Sr. Angela, in the store while I was buying my first school supplies. I knew at that moment that I wanted to be a teacher and I have never regretted that decision. It has always been my goal as a teacher to help students be able to grasp how history impacts our lives. The people and events of the past provide our window to the future.
   Gabriel Richard is a wonderful school with an incredible sense of family. We are such a success because our family works together--students, parents, and staff. I believe this is the root of successful education and I am proud to be a part of the GR family.
