My educational philosophy revolves around a student-centered approach that embraces each student's unique strengths and challenges. I believe in fostering a safe and inclusive environment where collaboration among educators, parents, and the community plays a vital role in supporting students' academic, emotional, and social well-being.
My husband and I are the proud parents of two daughters, ages 5 and 8; and a 3 year old yellow lab. Our usual free-time activities involve going to the park, doing crafts, playing at the beach, enjoying the pool, hiking, and going for bike/scooter rides. I also like to do yoga and catch up on reading whenever I can. I've spent most of my life in Southern California, but I was fortunate enough to live and work in Hawaii for a few years, which I'll always hold close to my heart.
