Welcome! I’m a Middle School ART & S.T.E.A.M. teacher and a S.T.E.A.M. Teacher on Special Assignment, dedicated to helping every student discover the magic within themselves. I believe that all children carry unique gifts, sometimes hidden, sometimes waiting for the right moment or the right environment to shine. My role is to create those moments.

In my classroom, creativity and innovation come together through hands-on, project-based learning. Whether students are sculpting with clay, creating art, experimenting with 3D printers, coding, building, or exploring the intersections of art and science, I aim to design learning experiences that build confidence, curiosity, and resilience. I want students to see themselves as artists, engineers, problem-solvers, and leaders, because they are.

Beyond the classroom, I support educators in integrating S.T.E.A.M. (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) and P.B.L. (project-based learning) into their teaching. I collaborate with teachers to build meaningful, equitable learning opportunities that honor student voice and empower them to think critically and creatively. I believe that when we uplift the brilliance of every child, we strengthen our schools, our communities, and our future.

Every day, I’m inspired by the students I serve,  their stories, their cultures, their courage, and their creativity. Together, we’re not just learning; we’re building, imagining, and making the world a better place through innovation and art.
