Meet the Team

I am currently a first grade teacher at St. Timothy’s school in Raleigh. I have over 20 years of experience teaching children from age 3 through 4th grade. My husband and I have one daughter, a freshman in college this year.

My first experience with IFSEL was when I attended a Summer Institute in 2022. Since then I have used their lessons and resources in my classroom daily. I believe that if children are given the tools to talk about and understand their emotions and the emotions of others, they will be better prepared not only to learn at school, but will have healthier and more successful relationships in life as well.
