Sycamore Ridge School
Educational Background and Professional Experience: I have taught for the past seventeen years in special education. This will be my thirteenth year working for Del Mar Union School District, and my fifth year at Sycamore Ridge Elementary School (Our Functional Life Skills program was formerly located at Carmel Del Mar Elementary School). I attended school at California State University San Marcos. While at California State San Marcos, I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Liberal Studies, and Master’s Degree in Special Education. I also earned and cleared my three teaching credentials: general education multiple subjects, mild/moderate education specialist, and moderate/severe education specialist. I have worked in a variety of settings in special education (Learning Lab, Core Content Instruction, Alternative Learning Curriculum, and Functional Life Skills) mainly with elementary aged children.

A little about me: I am a San Diego native, born and raised. I am a proud mother to my son, Matthew, and spend all of my time outside of school with him. In my spare time I enjoy being outdoors, reading, hiking, going to the beach, traveling, and exploring the many beautiful places San Diego has to offer.
