About me
Hi, and welcome! The 2026-2027 school year marks my fourth year as a teacher here at Whiting Middle School. Before I became a teacher, I worked as an optician for 17 years. My teaching philosophy is - “Every student is capable of doing their best.”
Being an educator is important to me because I believe it is crucial for young people preparing to transition into the "real world" to be equipped with the tools they need to be successful.
As a teacher, I am here to not only teach my students, but to listen to them and support them in their academic journeys. Happy learning everyone!
