First, let me tell you a little bit about me. My husband and I have three young children, who also attend Buffalo schools. We reside in Buffalo, yup, born and raised in Buffalo NY. I have been a Special Education Teacher for over 10 years now and have previously taught at another agency for 6 years before teaching in Buffalo, including summers. I am also certified in teaching the Deaf and have taught at St. Mary's School For the Deaf in my early teaching career. I have taught many grade levels from first grade through high school.
