Learning Assistant
Throughout my career, I have worked with children from various backgrounds and ages ( from infancy to elementary age students) in and outside a classroom setting. I have worked in international schools with a variety of different parent communities and students from around the world where I have occupied different leading and assisting positions from which I have learned and improved a lot.

I am currently pursuing my master’s degree in Early Childhood Education with an endorsement in Bilingual Education. When I am not in class or studying I enjoy crafting, DIY projects, and spending time with family.
While studying Creative Writing and English Literature at Sarah Lawrence College in New York, I nurtured my passion for working with children at a nearby school. I was a Pre-K classroom assistant at Yonkers PS 30 for three years—my primary role was to co-lead lesson plans, engage children in problem solving games, and direct small and large-scale art projects. Additionally, I tutored middle schoolers in reading comprehension and math. Being exposed to a range of age groups across different communities has exemplified how eager to grow young people are. It is such a rich experience and I am eager to continue at BISC-SL!
Being the oldest of five and growing up with several young cousins, working with children has always been a cornerstone of my life. After babysitting and nannying for several years, I decided to step into the classroom in college when I participated in a mentorship and tutoring program working with elementary school students. Through this program, I discovered a love for working with students, and I have not looked back.
I hold a BA (Hons) Degree in Fashion Design from Leeds University. After working for a UK-based fashion company since 2008, including several years living and working in China, my husband and I moved to the USA in August 2019. This coincided with a decision I made to take a career break, but I have long held an interest in getting more experience working in education, having worked in nurseries and childcare prior to university. I was delighted to have the opportunity to join the team at BISC-SL at the start of February, and working with the children and staff has so far been every bit as rewarding as I expected it to be and more
After growing up in rural Lincolnshire, UK and then completing an Undergraduate degree at Warwick University, I began my teaching career in London, UK. I completed my teacher training and then began in my first post at a vibrant inner London primary school. In 2008 I moved to Chicago where I then took on a teaching position at the Lincoln Park BISC campus, teaching across the Primary phase over the next six years.
