Parents'
Page
Hello,
parents! I graduated from the Graduate School of Education at Rutgers University
in 1999, where I received my Masters' degree in Education with certification to teach biology. My undergraduate degree is a
Bachelor of Science in Genetic Technology from the University of
Connecticut. I completed a six month internship in the genetics lab at
Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center in New York. After completion of this internship, I
moved to Boston to work at Tufts University (New England Medical Center), in the genetics
lab for one year. After working in an isolated lab, with hardly any interaction with
people, I realized my calling was education ...and here I am, doing my best to give your
kids the best education possible!
You may contact me
anytime via email,
or call me at the school and leave a message on my
voicemail. I am
available to talk if you have any concerns with your child's education. I have compiled a
list of resources which may be helpful to you. Thank you for visiting my parent resource
page! :)
