Hello everyone! I am a teacher with over ten years teaching experience, teaching Social Studies in public and private international schools around the world. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Exercise and Sport Sciences with minors in Secondary Education and Spanish from Texas Tech University where I competed as a cross-country and track athlete on a full athletic scholarship. I went into secondary education upon graduation and my current focuses are (AP/IB) Psychology, History, World Geography, Spanish and English for Spanish Speakers. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and have taught students from all over the world from Central American immigrants to advanced level Psychology students in Africa. I am a strong advocate for students taking classes in the Social Sciences because the knowledge learned in those classes are skills that can be transferred to the real world. As educators, we need to make sure our younger generation is properly equipped with the tools to handle the influx of information presented to them. It is a vital class for young learners to experience and one in which will become ever more prominent in the coming years. Mental health is being discussed now more than ever and our young people need to have a better understanding of themselves and the world around them regarding human behavior. Teaching a variety of classes and being able to travel the world has taught me how to be a very integrated, patient and diverse teacher.

In my free time, I enjoy running marathons, reading and shopping in vintage/thrift stores!
