Summary

I am a proud bilingual professional, mother, and emerging teacher with a Master's degree in education. I am eager to build upon my experience as an educator and bring my previous years of experience in the medical field to the classroom. I believe that a positive educational experience, consisting of close relationships with one's peers, is absolutely invaluable. I am grateful for the opportunity to make this goal of mine a reality for today's youth, and to challenge them to achieve more than they ever thought possible.
