Principal

I am very excited to be the proud Principal of our Southbury Shark family! Go Sharks! I began my teaching career as an elementary teacher in Palos Heights.  In the summer months, I worked for Parkland College for the Illinois Migrant Program as a reading specialist/teacher evaluator.  I was previously the Assistant Principal at Old Post Elementary School for 4 school years. 

I attended the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign obtaining a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education.  I continued my education by obtaining my master's degree as a Reading Specialist and my second master's degree in Educational Leadership, both through Olivet Nazarene University. I also attended Lewis University for my LBS1 Special Education Endorsement.   

District 308 is a wonderful school district and I am fortunate to be part of the family! 

Resource Special Education Coordinator 

I am very excited to be the special education program administrator for Southbury Elementary! 

Prior to joining School District 308, I was a special education teacher at the junior high level for six years. Additionally, I was the Director of Special Education for an elementary charter school for two years. I attended Northern Illinois University to obtain my bachelor’s degree, master’s degree, and special education director endorsement. 

I look forward to continuing my experience in District 308 by being a part of Southbury Elementary School! Go Sharks!
