About me

Summary

I am an Education Specialist that is driven to inspire others to pursue academic and personal success by empowering learners and creating meaningful change. Professional Educator, Curriculum Developer & Writer, and Educational Technology Specialist with excellent communication skills. Well-developed team-building and leadership abilities with experience in training and coaching co-workers, teachers, staff, leadership, and subject-matter experts.


Background

I am a graduate of Texas Tech University where I graduated with a degree in Biology with a concentration in both Ecology & Environmental Science.


Science has always been an interest and a passion of mine. I think that having an understanding of the world and universe we live in is invaluable, and that science is widely considered a difficult subject to understand. My goal is to kindle a love for and deepen students' understanding of science. As a science teacher, I conduct hands-on, data-driven learning and create engaging, memorable lessons for my students.


I strongly believe that each student is unique and deserves an individualized approach. I truly enjoy working with all levels of students, helping them learn and grow, applying what they learn beyond the classroom, and fostering a love for science.


I have been an educator since 2019. I have taught On-Level Biology, Inclusion Biology, Advanced Biology, GT Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. However, I am certified to teach all science courses in grades 7-12.
