Hello, Everyone! I teach 8th Grade Science and PLTW Medical Detectives. I am looking forward to a year of learning, fun, and adventures.

I was born and raised in CVUSD. I attended Country Springs, Canyon Hills, and Ayala High School. I went on to attend UCLA where I graduated with Honors in Sociology and Education. While at UCLA, I worked for UCPD as a Station Officier and an EMT. I also worked for the Department of Children and Family Services. Additionally, I played on the club soccer team and coached boys and girls AYSO in Santa Monica.

After college, I was passionate about so many things but especially captivated by continuous learning. I realized I wanted to be a teacher after I began working in the Special Education Department and coaching the girls Varsity Soccer Team at Troy High School. So, I went back to school and received my Master's Degree in Teacher Leadership as well as my teaching credential.

Outside of the classroom, I enjoy coaching, traveling and playing soccer.
