I was born in the US, raised in Switzerland, studied for my first two degrees in the States, and finally found my home in Israel. The need for creativity, innovativeness and charisma in working with young children is the same all over the world, and I am excited about finding new ways to help teachers in training to discover and develop these traits in themselves. As a teacher trainer and fieldwork supervisor I have the opportunity to work on a very personal level with my students, and delight in seeing the changes and growth in them throughout their studies. The past two years I have been the Head of the Early Childhood department, but resigned once I realized that the administrative demands threatened to extinguish my passion for education. Outside of the Teacher's College I am a karate instructor in an organization for women in the martial arts in Israel, and when the spirit moves me, I love to write poetry.
