Hello! I was raised in the West Park area of Cleveland and attended Cleveland Schools through 8th grade (including Riverside for summer school for typing and creative writing)!  I graduated from Kent State with my special education degree and from Cleveland State with a masters in Curriculum and Instruction and a reading endorsement.  I am currently completing my Wilson Reading Certification. I have been at Riverside School since the fall of 2001, starting as an Intervention Specialist and working currently as an Instructional Assistant.  I have always been impressed with how exceptional Riverside students are with their special needs peers! Go Owls!
