It is a great privilege to be part of the Clevedon School community. I grew up locally in Drury and Paparimu, and I started my teaching career in 2006 at Reremoana Primary School. I then spent 15 years living in the Netherlands and working at the International School of Amsterdam, which was an International Baccalaureate school. Belonging, compassion, and growth are the values that are at the core of my personal and professional philosophy. I believe that the classroom and school are a community in which students need to feel a strong sense of belonging, that their diversity is valued, and they must feel that they can contribute in a meaningful way.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time in nature, running, hiking, and spending time with my two children and husband.
