PLTW Health Sciences Teacher, Asheville High School
Originally from New Jersey. I came to North Carolina when I attended Warren Wilson college as a pre-veterinarian major. I worked at Tuscola High School for 18 years in the science department before coming to Asheville High. I switched to CTE 3 years ago and would have come a lot sooner if the position was open. CTE allows me to teach students about the biomedical world with real life scenarios and hands-on learning. I hope to show students that a career in biomedical science has many diverse pathways and numerous specializations and is a vital part of our community. When I am not in the classroom, I spend a great amount of time riding and competing with my horses.
