Hi all,

I am currently a 4th Grade ICT teacher. Next year will be my 5th year teacher and I can't even believe how fast it has gone. I have worked in multiple classroom settings and 3 different grades. I find myself so fortunate to have been able to teach in so many different settings and grade levels only within a short amount of time.

For my 1st two years of teaching I worked in a small private school in a 2nd Grade Gen Ed. Classroom. When I moved to a public school I landed myself in NYC's hidden gem the Nest Program- funded and founded by NYU to integrate the ASD population into the general education classroom As mentioned, this year was my first year teaching in a 4th Grade integrated co-teaching classroom. I did end up really loving the rigor of grade 4, but I have been move to 1st grade for next year. I am extremely excited to teach a new grade back in the Nest Prgeam, which has molded me into the teacher I am today.

I am a graduate of St. Joseph's College in Brooklyn, NY where I received both my undergraduate and graduates degree. This summer I will begin my post-graduate degree.

Being a teacher one of the only things I foresaw in my future as a child. I am so grateful to have been a person that has my childhood dreams come true. I never expected to teach in as many grade levels and settings as I have, in so little time. I feel so blessed to have this much experience in only 5 years.

Putting a classroom together is so unbelievably expensive. I would be so honored if you donated to me. ?

Keep Smiling,
