I am a proud New Lenox School District graduate.  I attended Bentley for fifth and sixth grade.  I'm excited about being back at Bentley as a teacher!  I have taught junior high language arts for 10 years, the last seven of which were in eighth grade at Martino.   This is my second year at Bentley, and my twelfth year teaching. In my free time, I enjoy reading, scrapbooking, and spending time with my family.
