About Me

I was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in 1991. As a kid, I lived in Baldwin, a borough in Pittsburgh's south hills. I attended Baldwin High School graduated in 2009. I then went to Edinboro University to become a teacher.

I graduated college in 2015 and started working for the Erie School District after that. I have worked at Diehl Elementary, East Middle School, and Erie High. I also worked at another school called Community Country Day School for a few years.

In my spare time I like to make music. I play guitar and bass, and I also sing. Long ago, I played alto saxpohone in my high school's marching band, but I have not practiced that in a long time. I have been writing, recording, and performing my own songs since I was in high school. Music helps me express myself in a positive and fun way!

Another hobby of mine is acting. I have acted onstage since I was a teenager. You can come see me perform in a show or two in Erie just about every year! Besides working at Erie High, I also work for Footlights Performing Arts Center as an acting instructor for students age 6-12.
