I have 14 years teaching experience and a passion for STEAM. Exploring STEAM concepts with students is something I always worked to incorporate into aspects of teaching when I worked for Jefferson County Public Schools as a learning specialist, classroom teacher, instructional coach and technology lead. I strongly believe that the scientific and engineering design processes are key to fostering the critical thinking skills, growth mindset, and collaboration students need.

I hold an active teaching license in the state of Colorado with endorsements in:
