Through 20 years of classroom and administrative experience, I have developed a passion for practical, research-based classroom strategies. I have taught 9-12th grade English courses including AP and honors.  I currently teach high school English in Southern California.

I recently earned a graduate certificate from the Johns Hopkins University, School of Education in Mind, Brain and Teaching.  It's exciting to learn about the brains that I'm entrusted with every day.
