The DLA team

DLA Spanish 7H
Dual Language Department Lead

I graduated from the University of Arizona with a B.A. in Spanish and Psychology. I received my teaching credential from National University and am currently in the process of completing my Masters in Education.

This is my fifth year teaching and 10th year working in the district. I have taught multiple levels of Spanish, ELD, Gear Up, and coached athletics. 

As a native Spanish speaker, I bring a deep appreciation for the language and the diverse cultures it represents, and I love sharing that with my students.

DLA Science 7H

I graduated from the University of California, San Diego and continued my education where I pursued my teaching credential at Concordia University. I am proud to be the first in my family to graduate from college.

This will be my third year of teaching; however, I have had vast experience with student mentorship, coaching, and AVID.

I am a native Spanish speaker and have a passion for language and culture.
