It is with great excitement that I welcome you to a new school year at Scott 6th Grade Center.

I am honored to have the opportunity to lead a school with such persevering students, dedicated staff, and a supportive school community. I feel fortunate to be a part of this school and support the students and families. I started to meet with the staff, and I can already tell that it is a unique and special place that I am incredibly excited to be a part of.

I come to Scott Middle school with 23 years of educational experience.  I began my career as a fourth grade teacher at Holy Trinity in Bridgeport, PA for two years.  I then moved to London, England, where I taught Year 3 (Second Grade) for two years. When I returned to Pennsylvania in 2003, I started working in Daniel Boone School District. I started as a gifted support teacher for grades 3 through 5. After 4 years in that position, I returned to being a classroom teacher. I taught fourth grade for ten years. In 2017, I returned to the gifted support position, but this time it was supporting Kindergarten through 5th grade. I began my administrative career when the opportunity to work here in Coatesville at Caln Elementary opened in 2019. It was one that I did not want to miss! After being at Caln for the 2019-2020 school year, I was moved to the Intermediate High School in 2020, where I have been one of the assistant principals for the last two years.  This year, I will be the principal of the Scott 6th Grade Center.

Educationally, I graduated from Villanova University in 1999 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and my Elementary Education Certification from Rosemont College.  I received my Masters in Educational Leadership and my Special Education Certification from Immaculata University in 2006. I earned my Principal Certification from Cabrini College in 2014.

I am married to my college sweetheart, Mike. We live in Downingtown with our 4 children, Ian, Dana, Charlotte, and Mitchell, and our dog, Jackson. Life is busy, but we love it! We enjoy watching movies, playing board games, and taking trips to the beach.

I am excited about the opportunity to lead Scott 6th Grade Center, as this is a combination of my elementary and high school backgrounds.  I know we will do great things together here.  I invite you to be a part of our school whenever you can... participate in conferences, share your ideas...I want us to work together to give our students every opportunity to be successful.  Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you need help for any reason.
