Hello, I'm Abby
I have been a passionate educator for 21 years! I believe that curiosity is the spark that ignites a lifelong journey of discovery. I am pursuing the joy of becoming a media specialist. I love literature and it is my passion to teach children how to read, enjoy reading, and learn from reading. The sky is the limit for the technologies I can introduce them to. How exciting!
Outside the classroom, you'll find me spending time with my family. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 20 years and have three children: Lily (18), Hudson (13), and Beckett (9). We enjoy the outdoors and sporting events. You can also find me snuggling up to a good book, writing, and organizing a 5K and mile race.
