Hello everyone! I am so excited to be co-teaching the Bryant Park class this school year. As an NYC native, I am so excited to be returning to the city to join the Lang community after teaching for the past two years in Washington, DC. I have been working with children for about 5 years, however I decided to become a teacher after my brother was diagnosed with ADHD. Once I saw how few 2e spaces there were for students like him, I knew I had to become someone who could create a safe and inclusive environment for all students. My goal as an educator (and in life!) is to make learning as fun and accessible as possible. In my free time, I love to crochet, spend time with my family, and play a few video games. I’m looking forward to meeting all of the Lang community and having a great school year!
