I am an enthusiastic educator who strives to make learning engaging and relevant for students. Providing opportunities for students to set goals, take risks in their learning and be challenged, allows them to develop as creative and critical thinkers. I believe that as educators, we need to work in partnership with students and parents to meet the learning and social and emotional needs of our students.

As the Newman Leader, it is my role to coordinate whole school processes that support the identification of gifted students and ensure that learning experiences are differentiated to meet student needs.
