1st Grade Teacher

I am a passionate and energetic elementary teacher with 11 years of experience teaching elementary students. I've spent six amazing years at Irving and five years teaching in the greater Los Angeles area, primarily in 1st Grade, 2nd Grade and Kindergarten. I love helping young learners discover the fun in learning!

I bring a rich academic background - including a JD from Loyola University Chicago, a MA in International Studies from Claremont Graduate University, a Post-Graduate Certificate in Elementary Education from California State University Northridge, and a BA in French Studies from Northwestern University - and a whole lot of enthusiasm for helping children grow academically and socially every day.
