I began my career as a math teacher at Mary E. Phillips High School. While at Phillips I served as School Improvement Chair, yearbook adviser and developed curriculum for LIFE class. I also led committees to implement initiatives to improve school culture and climate. The highlight of my teaching career has been encouraging students to have the same love for math as I do. I was also honored as Phillips’ Teacher of the Year 2017-2018.

I have a Bachelor of Arts with license certifications in math and social studies, a Master of Science with a focus on seismology and am working on a Master in School Administration.
