Bio:

Social connection is what fuels me, and it’s one of the many reasons I love being part of the McGillis community. I’m grateful for the relationships I get to build with our dedicated faculty, supportive families, and—most importantly—our incredible students. Outside of work, I love reading, yoga, and getting outside on our beautiful trails. It’s even better when I get to share these hobbies with my husband, our dog, or friends.

 

Favorite McGillis Lunch:

Pasta with Roasted Veggies

 

Books I love:

Remarkably Bright Creatures

 

The McGillis value that means the most to me:

Derech Eretz, having respect for all, is the value that means the most to me. I believe every child has the right to feel safe and respected at school, and that is why I love that our community is values-centered. By actively teaching, modeling, and living these principles every day, we create a respectful and supportive environment that helps instill pride and responsibility in upholding these values, even after their time at McGillis.
