| 2008-9 New Teacher of the Year! |
| Academic Background |
| I received my B.A. in English with a Literature emphasis from Chapman University, and my
Teaching Credential from Cal State Long Beach. |
| Family |
| I have three awesome siblings, four adorable nephews, and two angelic nieces. |
| Why did you become a teacher? |
| I have had great teachers. I love learning. My great teachers have played a large part in my love of learning and I want to do the same for others. |
| Years teaching? |
| This is my third year teaching here at FVHS (fourth if you count my student teaching!) I guess I've been spoiled that way.
I have been teaching in some form since high school, when I worked as a tutor. During college I worked at an after-school daycare, and most recently I taught SAT prep classes. Yes, I can improve your grammar score. |
| Personal Comments/Quotes |
| "True Knowledge is knowing how much you don't know." -Socrates |
| Interests & Hobbies |
| Traveling! Experiencing new places teaches you about the world and about yourself as well...I love reading for the same reasons.
I also appreciate the unusual and original, whether it be a work of art or a specialty soda. I consequently own a collection of oddly shaped hats. |
