I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California and attended college in Virginia. As an educator, I  have taught children at all grade levels first in Virginia and now in Florida. I have had my best experiences at Charlotte High School and consider myself truly lucky to have had the opportunity to teach such amazing students. I encourage students to follow their dreams, take risks, and develop a love of learning. I believe all children have the potential to succeed and deserve educators who encourage them to discover their unique gifts.
