Summary

Experienced educator with 25 years of experience as a middle school math teacher. I have been collaborative in working with teachers, administrators and specialists to support all student needs. Additionally I have taken on the role of co-taught classes with special education students for the past 15 years to help those struggling students understand material at grade level. On the district level, I have been involved in textbook adoptions and have been a school representative for the district 8th-grade leadership committee.
