I am a Teacher Librarian at Hoover Elementary School in PAUSD. This website is not vetted by, approved of, sponsored by, nor even seen by PAUSD. It my own personal endeavor.
I earned my MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Hamline University in 2009, my Library Credential from Fresno Pacific in 2012 and my Teaching Credential from San Francisco State a long, long time ago.
I grew up in San Mateo, attending George Hall Elementary School, Abbott Middle School and Hillsdale High School. I’ve taught in San Jose Unified, Jefferson Elementary School District in Daly City and now in Palo Alto. Realizing our schools are segregated has been a slow process for me - too slow - but now that I have, there’s no going back. This isn’t Topeka, Kansas in 1954. This isn’t Westminster, California in 1946. This is my hometown. Today.
