Mrs. Hazlin is thrilled to be in her third year at Kilmer Middle School -- it is a wonderful place to teach and to learn! Prior to entering the field of education, she worked in the information industry for nine years. Her background is primarily in corporate and non-profit libraries; she has been a librarian at Johnson & Johnson, Grey Advertising, and The New York Academy of Medicine. Through her various positions, Mrs. Hazlin has done library and research skills instruction for students ranging in age from middle school through to senior citizens. With a special affinity for teaching middle school students and young adult literature, she decided to pursue education full time.

Mrs. Hazlin received her Masters in Library Service from Rutgers in New Jersey, a Bachelor of Arts in English and History from Boston College, and is herself a product of Fairfax County Public Schools, graduating from McLean High School. In her free time, she likes to read, play outside, and most importantly, spend time with her husband and her three-year-old son.
