I was born and raised in Mountain Brook and am an alumni of all 3 Mountain Brook schools. I moved back to Alabama in March 2022 and spent the last year as a substitute for the surounding counties. However, this will be my 23rd year teaching Spanish with 19 years in Maryland and 3 years in North Carolina.  

I began taking Spanish in 6th grade at Mountain Brook Elementary and continued on through college. After one year at Auburn, I moved to Spain for 2 years and graduated from the University of Madrid and completed my Masters in Education at Salisbury University in 2013. My experience in Spain allows me to share my love for the Spanish language as well as showcase the lively culture.   

I am thrilled to be a member of the MBJH faculty as I walked these halls many years ago! Even though some physical things have changed, the quality education and energized environment are still the same! It's going to be a great year!
