About Me

Hello there! I am honored to be in my fifth year of teaching at the middle school that I attended back when it first opened... Go Huskies!

I received my BA in Media Studies at San Diego State University with a Minor in Sociology, and earned my teaching credential in English at Cal State University, East Bay. I have a passion for reading and writing, and have contributed to various online and print publications while in school and during my first job at a start up company.

This year at Hart, I am teaching 8th grade Language Arts, 6th grade Middle School Success for the wheel rotation, and Leadership.

Along with teaching, I also coach boys and girls basketball, as well as track and volleyball. I love being involved with the school community through sports, leadership events, our international fair, and after school tutoring.

When I am not busy grading essays, I love to travel!! I have visited 17 countries around the world, and I try to to bring different cultures and practices that I have learned about into my teaching.

Feel free to ask if there is anything else you would like to know!
