About
I believe that every student can succeed in mathematics when placed in a caring, supportive environment that fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and a growth mindset. As a teacher, I am driven by the daily challenge of turning "I can't do math" into "I almost got it—let me try again." This belief has guided my over-a-decade-long career, where I have consistently achieved 100% pass rates by building relationships first and teaching math second.
I am a Utah-licensed (Middle Math) and former Massachusetts-licensed (Math 5-8) educator, currently a graduate of M.Ed. in Advanced Teaching (STEM Fields) at the University of the People, USA. I now seek to bring my experience in differentiated instruction, growth mindset strategies, and collaborative professional development to your school to empower every learner with the highest quality education through shared leadership, innovative practices, and exemplary services.
