With over two decades in educational roles, my journey has been marked by a steadfast commitment to special education and fostering student well-being. At DeLand High School, my role as Dean of Students involves the integration of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) and Restorative Practices to enhance discipline procedures, illustrating my dedication to creating a positive and supportive learning environment.My tenure at Stanley Middle School as an Exceptional Child Teacher leverages my Bachelor's degree in Specialized Studies and is underscored by my proficiency in active listening, clear communication, and organizational skills. These competencies have empowered me to not only facilitate individual education plans effectively but also to forge strong relationships that have been pivotal in driving learning gains and mitigating behavioral incidents within the school community.
