I am one of those people. I love running -especially when I have good music to listen to. This is what I do when I'm happy or sad or even mad. I believe it's the best therapy and has numerous physical and mental benefits. So if you can't find me, I probably tied my sneakers up and hit the pavement.

                       What I LOVE About Education

I am only really entering the world of education now. I taught preschool years ago but then ventured out to the corporate world. While having an opportunity to look again at my life and future, I realized that I wanted more. I needed to fulfill a desire to help children. I am completing my Masters now to fulfill that goal. I think educators have a unique opportunity to reach so many young lives. Within a school, teachers and staff are not only teaching academics but also modeling and encouraging important life lessons. Below is my husband (with my daughter), who is a middle school principal in New Jersey. I know he is one of the best administrators in the state because I see how compassionate he is about helping all his students in whatever way he possibly can. I envy that and hope to also have such a positive impact on young lives.

I want to have a positive impact on the present and future lives of children. I want every child I encounter to have a voice and know that someone is always hearing their words. I believe that having one person in your life who hears you and is always approachable and compassionate can truly change a child's life.

I am not a teacher. I feel as if I may be the only person in this program who is not an educator, BUT I am the assistant to the Director of Curriculum at Mansfield Township Elementary School. Wanting to break ground in a school district as a counselor, I was determined to at least work in a school to learn the ropes. So here I am!

Here are my three wonderful children (ages 6, 9, and 11). These guys are my inspiration in everything I do. I feel like they are truly fortunate to have caring parents who listen, because I know not all children are as lucky. This is why I want to be a school counselor- to provide that to as many children as I possibly can.

I may not have a classroom but I do have these girls - my field hockey team. My teaching environment is actually on the field when it comes to this fall sport. I love being able to watch them grow and mature into the amazing girls they are becoming.
