Personal:
I have a beautiful family; husband, daughter, son, and pup. We love going to the Oakland Zoo and playing with friends & family.
I LOVE turtles! My love started with my grandparents pet turtle when I was a tot. It wandered in to their yard one day and I have fond memories of feeding him lettuce and cantaloup.
My favorite color is PURPLE, so AV is the perfect home for me!
I have a love for learning! I really believe in being a life long learner.
Having a balance with work and personal life is very important to me. Because of this I no longer bring work home with me. All student work stays in the classroom and I work on it when I am at school. I appreciate your patience with grading student work. I hope that you also value balance and try to have a healthy school and life balance. Let me know if you need help navigating that and we can try to come up with a manageable balance for you too!
