I am a native Californian, raised in Fullerton. I have my Bachelor's
Degree in business with a concentration in accounting from Cal State
Fullerton. I was an accountant before I decided to make a career change and
obtain my teaching credential.
This is my 5th year at St. Norbert's, and I can honestly say that I am
in my element. I love teaching here, and everyday I thank God for such a
wonderful place to teach math and Spanish.
I am a true sports lover, as my students well know. So anytime you
wish to talk sports, I'd love the opportunity to talk to you.
My mission is to empower my students to reach their full potential. I
will treat them with respect, compassion and understanding and will expect
the same in return. I will establish high expectations for my students in
the areas of academics, behavior, and peer interactions. I will hold them
responsible for meeting those expectations.
My mission is to create a positive classroom environment in which my
students and I can reach our full potential. I will help my students to
develop a positive attitude about themselves and those around them by
teaching them the needed strategies to achieve this. I want to empower my
students with problem solving strategies, to be independent thinkers, and
responsible learners that will enable them to overcome any challenges they
may meet and to help them be more successful.
My mission as a teacher is to instill a lifelong love of learning and
reading in my students, so they will know that through continuous learning
and reading they can make their dreams come true. I want to empower my
students to believe in themselves and because of that belief they will be
able to achieve their highest potential.
