This is my sixth year teaching in the Columbia Public School District.  I taught at Saint Louis University and University of Missouri for 7 years.  I’m looking forward to a new year teaching at the middle school level.  This year I teach all sections of French at West: 1A, 1B and Level 2, as well as 7th grade AVID and 2 sections of 6th grade FLEX.  

My preparation to teach includes a Bachelor’s degree in French from University of Nevada, Las Vegas, a Master’s degree in French Literature from Saint Louis University and a doctorate in French Language and Literature from MU.  I have been on several study abroad trips to Pau, France, Paris and Québec.  I have taught all levels of Elementary French at the university level and now I have this wonderful opportunity to teach in the public schools.
