About Me:

This is my 15 year teaching and my 5th year here at my alma mater. I love living in the town where I grew up. I enjoy hiking, camping and fishing, and horseback riding.

I have two children, Devin and Cora who normally attend Pomona Elementary. We also have a cat named Nico.

I know we are all unsure what this year will bring, but I know that we all are capable of making it a great year. One of the most important components of this year is going to be communication. please feel free to email me anytime, and I will get back to you within 24 hours. I am also willing to work with students who need extra support.
