I am Ms. Marisa. I was born and raised on Long Island, New York. Currently, I reside in Mount Airy, with my husband, Rob, and our four-year-old cat, Tappy.
Ever since I was little, I always knew in my heart what I wanted to do, which was to become a teacher of young children. In high school, I tutored elementary-
aged children. Growing up in New York, from the time I started working, every summer, I was employed at day camps. As an undergraduate, I studied at Towson University, where I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education. After graduation, I became a resident of Maryland and began my teaching career working in preschools, childcare centers, and private schools. While working, I continue to further my education in Early Childhood by attending various workshops and conferences, which help me teach my students to be successful in school. Teaching children new things and expanding on what they already know is what I enjoy doing. My love for teaching will never change. Other things about me: I also enjoy anything Disney, the beach, and my
favorite color is purple. I am looking forward to getting to know your children. We are going to have a blast in class.
