This is my 22nd year teaching and my 18th year teaching at OCSI.  I am currently teaching the following classes:

• 7th Grade - Pre-Algebra

  • Math Resources

• 8th Grade - Pre-Algebra 

• 12th Grade - Consumer Math

I am also the Homeroom Advisor for the Class of 2030.

Living in Okinawa is a huge joy and the OCSI students, faculty and staff have continually been a great support and a wonderful source of encouragement.  Being here has been such an incredible blessing and I love the ocean, the culture of Okinawa, and I am so thankful for this opportunity God has given me.

Prior to coming here, I lived in Manteca, California (1 hour south of Sacramento).  I taught math and history for 4 years at a small Christian school there.  I was also involved with our church youth group and church camp.  I have degrees in Social Sciences from Fresno Pacific University and Natural Sciences with a Mathematics emphasis from San Joaquin Delta College.
