This is my ninth year teaching and my seventh year at Abraham Lincoln.  I have taught middle school in East Palo Alto and Redwood City, and I have worked as an environmental educator and co-facilitated improvisational theatre workshops and creative writing workshops with incarcerated adults and youth. I co-sponsor the Creative Writing Club and the New Global Citizens Club.

 I am originally from Michigan and received my B.A. and teaching credential from the University of Michigan.  I student taught in Detroit.

 I love teaching!  I feel thankful every day for the students who come through my room, their ideas and personalities! When not teaching, I am an avid reader and writer.  I love cooking, games, hiking, traveling, and martial arts.
