About Me:

The 2024-2025 school year will be my 9th year teaching at Wall Intermediate as a Technology Education educator!

My educational credentials include a B.S. in Engineering and a B.A. in German from Rutgers University and an M.A. in Administration and Leadership from Georgian Court University. I have worked in education for 12 years and am certified by the New Jersey Department of Education as a Technology Teacher, Supervisor, and Principal.

Prior to teaching, I worked as a licensed professional civil engineer (NJPE) and certified municipal engineer (CME) in New Jersey. I maintain my professional engineering license and have international work experience in Germany and Ireland.

I'm a mom of three and like to think of all my students as my own while they are in and out of my classroom. I hope to challenge your children with engaging hands-on experiences that embrace a STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) learning initiative.

Please never hesitate to contact me with any concerns about your child and their education!

Success is a journey not a destination
just keep learning and keep growing

Course Overview

Course Descriptions

Media Communications - 8th Grade Semester Elective

Media Communications is designed to introduce the areas of digital media in communications through graphic design and video. Students will utilize graphic design and video editing software to learn photography, graphic design, video production and video editing.

Pre-Engineering & Architecture - 8th Grade Semester Elective

Students will develop technical drawing, computer-aided design and drafting (CADD), design and computational thinking skills in this hands-on elective course. The history of our human designed world will be explored and evaluated to reflect how innovation has developed over time and impacts our modern world. Through the engineering design process, students will have the opportunity to apply critical thinking, science, technology, and math skills to develop solutions and prototypes to authentic problems.

Technology Workshop - 7th Grade Semester Elective

The Technology Workshop immerses students in coursework that integrates design and computational thinking principles through project-based learning. Local and global issues will be explored to allow students to engage critical and creative thinking skills to problem solve and develop applied science, technology, engineering, and mathematical solutions. Applications include coding, graphic design, 3D modeling, and prototyping.
