I am a Seattle native and a product of twelve years of Catholic education. I graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in English and earned my Masters in Education Administration from Seattle University. My diverse teaching background includes experience in both the Catholic and public school systems and in grades Prek-12 with homerooms in 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 7th specifically.

​

Parents are the first teachers in a child’s life and my goal is to work in partnership with individual families to create an environment where each child succeeds in school. I am a firm believer that a strong education gives students more choices for their future. The more knowledge, tools and skills students acquire, the better prepared they are for making choices and in creating possibilities for their unique futures. It is in working together as a team: parents, teachers and individual students, that the greatest gains are possible.
