I have been serving the Newport-Mesa community as a music teacher in our district since 2002. I have the best job in the world! My main instrument is the clarinet, and I enjoy playing in local community ensembles and at my church. I am a life-long learner, and I always enjoy learning something new, whether it's how to play a new instrument, a new recipe, or even how to make green screen videos for school! In recent years I have added nature photography to my list of hobbies (check out some of the beautiful birds I have seen in Costa Mesa and Newport Beach above). I have two children of my own who attend Newport-Mesa schools. I love my family, pets, travel, and trips to Disneyland!
