Educational Experience:  

This year is my 32nd year of teaching.  I have been fortunate to have a wide variety of experiences, including teaching almost every grade level, in the science lab, and now as an Innovation Technologist.  I base my teaching on the latest brain-based research, and am passionate about incorporating coding, robotics, engineering and design into our Design Den studies.  I received my teaching credential from UCSD and continue to take classes in a wide variety of subject matter to keep current in my profession.

Educational Philosophy


Teaching Philosophy:  William Butler Yeats said, ‘Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.’ This quote is the focus of my teaching philosophy. It is my daily goal to create a student-centered environment where experiences are real-life, engaging, hands-on and meaningful.  Within this learning environment we are all teachers and learners, and we work as a collaboratively to support and care for each other. 

WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE DESIGN DEN THIS YEAR

As Innovation Technologist I will provide a variety of learning experiences for the students.  Using the design thinking process and multiple technologies and resources, I will develop inquiry-based learning experiences for students that promote critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication.

Life Outside of the Hawk's Nest


I am very active and love to run, swim, bike, hike, dance and play pickleball.  I also love to learn, and I read, listen to podcasts, and research about all kinds of topics.  Music is one of my favorite things, and I listen to a wide variety of tunes and play the piano and guitar.   One of my favorite parts of teaching is learning from the students, each and every day!
