My dedication to Goshen Post’s Project Based Learning vision will remain the focus as we continue to ensure authenticity, equity, and empathy remain the center of these learning opportunities. I am truly “Committed to achieving excellence through authentic, rigorous experiences for every child, every day!” 

You are welcome to contact me with any questions, concerns, or wonderings. Together, we will have a positive influence in the lives of our students. 

Go, Gators!

It is with great excitement that I will be serving the community as the new Assistant Principal at Goshen Post Elementary School. It is an absolute honor to take on this role, and I look forward to our continued work together. 

Throughout the past 6 years, I have been part of the Goshen Post community serving as a classroom teacher in both 2nd and 3rd grade. My time as a teacher at Goshen Post was instrumental in shaping me into the leader I am today. My passion for teaching includes engaging in deeper learning, literacy instruction, and providing students with authentic learning experiences. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a Master’s degree in Literacy Education from West Virginia University. I also earned a Reading Specialist Certificate and a Post-master’s Certificate in Educational Leadership and Administration from George Washington University. During my time at Goshen Post, I facilitated literacy professional developments for both the staff and county, coordinated summer school, and took on numerous leadership roles. I am committed to remaining at the forefront of educational research and promoting best practices that support students' academic, social-emotional, and behavioral needs. I look forward to continuing to foster positive relationships with staff, students, and families, while ensuring that our gators are achieving excellence through authentic and rigorous learning every day. 

I am fully committed to providing every student with the opportunity to engage in deeper learning, collaboration, and creativity to establish life-long learners. I am excited for the opportunity to celebrate students’ successes, differences, and interests. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or concerns. Let’s make the 2024-2025 school year an unforgettable one! 

I am honored to be joining the Goshen Post community as the Administrative Dean for the 2024-2025 school year.  I spent the past ten years working at Sully Elementary School in Sterling, first as a classroom teacher, and most recently as the School Based Instructional Facilitator.  I earned both my Bachelors and Masters degrees from James Madison University and earned my Post Masters Certificate in Educational Leadership and Administration from George Washington University.
