Meet the Main Road Principal

I graduated from Rutgers University in Camden, NJ with a B.A. in Psychology. I have certifications in Elementary School Teacher in Grades K - 6, Teacher of Students with Disabilities, and Elementary School Teacher with Mathematics Specialization Grades 5 thru 8. In May 2023, I graduated from Wilmington University where I completed my Masters in School Leadership obtaining both principal and supervisor certifications.

I have worked in Township of Franklin Public Schools since 2012. My career began as a Special Education Teacher, with a focus in math at the Caroline L. Reutter School, where I taught for nine years. While at Caroline L. Reutter School, I served as the Special Education team leader from 2016 until 2021.

In 2021, I was named the Special Education Instructional Coach for the school district. In this role I worked closely with both the Curriculum Department and the Child Study Team to strengthen communication between school buildings and help support solid instructional practices. All of these positions helped shape me as a leader and provide me with valuable experiences to enter as Main Road Principal in November 2023. I look forward to the 2026-2027 School Year working with our Main Road family.

It is my belief that all students can achieve their goals through guidance, hard work and perseverance. This directly aligns with the vision at Main Road School, where staff are committed to setting high academic standards for our students, while providing a nurturing environment that encourages curiosity and a true love for learning. These standards help to instill confidence, build independence, and a strong work ethic that will follow our students into future endeavors. I look forward to continue building on all of these attributes to create a positive school culture at Main Road!

• High Expectations - Instill that students are capable of achieving more than they think
• Respect - Treat others the way you expect to be treated
• Grit - Perseverance and work ethic = goals met
• Teamwork- Collaborate with staff, students, and parent/guardians to develop and maintain a student-centered learning environment
• Equality- Treat others fairly and with dignity; fostering the value of different perspectives

I hold myself to high standards and I plan to maintain communication from the beginning of the year. It is a personal goal of mine to keep staff, students, and parents/guardians informed on a regular basis through various modes of communication (school website, phone call, email, and announcements). Parents can expect updates from me each week highlighting Main Road School. Our school website is also a wealth of information that we take pride in keeping updated, please refer to this often. I value open communication and look forward to meeting you!
