About Me
Welcome to the 2023-2024 school year! I teach 6th grade Language Arts. I'm looking forward to a great year getting to know all my classes and striving to achieve our fullest potential!
I was born and raised here in San Diego. I attended USDHS (now Cathedral HS), then headed up to UC Davis for my B.A. in English. I also received my Multiple Subject credential there before returning home to San Diego. I received both my M.A. in English and my English Single Subject credential from National University. I am currently working on completing my Social Science credential. I began teaching at Dana in 2002, and I have taught both 5th and 6th grade Language Arts, Computers, Drama, and 6th grade Social Studies.
One of my favorite hobbies is traveling. I have been very fortunate to travel to many places throughout the world and experience several different fascinating cultures. I love sharing stories of my adventures in traveling with my students and hearing any they may have in return.
Again, I look forward to a wonderful year. See you in room 208!
