WHERE HAVE YOU LIVED IN THE WORLD?

I was born in Toronto and I am a proud flag waving Torontonian.

WHAT HAVE YOU STUDIED? HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN A TEACHER?

My passion is education.  I have earned an Early Childhood Diploma from the Montessori Teachers College, as well as Elementary Diplomas I and II from the Toronto Montessori Institute.  I feel blessed to be able to inspire creative young minds. I have been teaching since 2012.

WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU ARE REALLY GOOD AT?

 I am really good at Origami.  I find it fascinating and almost magical that a plain piece of paper can be transformed geometrically into a colourful three dimensional work of art.  Cultural tradition even says that if a person folds 1,000 paper cranes, they will be granted one special wish.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO WHEN YOU AREN’T AT SCHOOL?

I love losing myself to music especially symphonies and musicals.  My all time favourite composition is The Planets by Gustav Holst. Also I am fixated on culinary arts travel shows.  Sometimes I even attempt the recipes!

WHAT IS SOMETHING NOT EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT YOU?

That I love munching on dark chocolate while taking leisurely nature walks.  With any luck I may come across a pair of cardinals or wild bunnies.
