About Me 

This is my 8th year teaching at Union, and 10th year teaching. I graduated from St. Xavier University with a Bachelor of Music Education in 2014. Students will see me in many places around the school! I teach music and band (T/TH), the school librarian (M/W/F), Pre-K teacher (M/W/F), 2nd lunch monitor (M-F), and Greenhouse aide (M/W) . My favorite things are: music, books, anything purple, and Harry Potter.

Students should login with their school Google account.

Union Band

Band takes place after school, from 2:30-3:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Students in 4th-8th grades can join band. The band performs at the Holiday and Spring concerts. Please contact me if your student is interested in joining.

Library

All students are encouraged to participate in the Accelerated Reader program. Students can read books from the library, take a test at school about the book, and receive prizes for reading.

Please consider donating to the library if there are any new or slightly used books at home, that your student is no longer reading.
