"There is no such thing as a child who hates to read; there are only children who have not found the right book." - Frank SerafiniI have been a resident of Upper Merion for over forty years. I am proud to live, and now work, in this wonderful district. I am an Upper Merion high school graduate. I hold a master's degree plus 30 credits from Cabrini College and St. Joseph's University. I hold certifications as both a Reading Specialist and Elementary Educator.I live less than a mile from Candlebrook. I hope you will see me walking to work when the weather is nice. I have three sons, Colin, Patrick and Michael all graduates of Penn State University (Pat and Mike also graduated from UM). They are all happily working and pursuing great careers.I believe enjoyment is the key to good reading. We can work together to create a love of reading in your child. I will work to make your child successful and excited about learning and achieving.
