Why I Teach
It's great to be a Warrior! This is my 11th year in education and 7th at Arapahoe. More than anything else, I'm here because I want to know your story. My goal is that students leave my class feeling comfortable about communicating their ideas, evaluating opposing views, and engaging in productive civic discourse.
