English Department:  English 10 & Literacy Seminar Block and AVID 10

I have been at Battle High School since it opened in 2013, and I love working with high school students, helping them grow as readers, writers and critical thinkers. Before coming to Battle, I happily taught middle school for 15 years, mostly at Smithton Middle School. 

In 2016, I had the privilege of teaching my first AVID class. I was with them throughout their high school years, and watched them all graduate in 2020.  While it did not end the way we envisioned, they are now in a variety of colleges and universities, pursuing their dreams. I am so excited to work with the Class of 2024 AVID students for the next few years.  I can't wait see them grow and flourish!

In my spare time, I love to hang out with my three kids (10th, 11th and 12th grades this year) and my house full of pets.  I love to work out, anything from walking my dog and running, to strength training and yoga. Any quiet moments I can steal (usually at 6am) are spent drinking coffee, reading and writing.
