ABOUT ME
I grew up in Mountain View and attended schools in Los Altos. I graduated from Los Altos High School at the age of sixteen and received my college degree and teaching credential at Santa Clara University. I have taught in Portola Valley, Mountain View, San Jose, Sunnyvale, and San Francisco. I have worked for the Redwood City School District for seven years now.
I have one brother and three sisters. I am a proud auntie of four nieces and two nephews. Estella is a junior in high school this year. She will be joining the pharmaceutical department at the University of Southern California next year. Her sister, Ellie, is starting seventh grade this year. Ellie loves to learn math and robotic. My nephew Dylan is in sixth grade and Davin is in first grade. Dylan thinks Davin is "too wild" so he is very protective of his little brother. Ava will be in fourth grade this year and she enjoys art, ballet, gymnastic, and playing on her piano. Her sister, Lia, is six year old. Lia likes to bike and swim.
I enjoy hiking, biking, and snowboarding. I do not have a television or radio at home so I read everything. My cat, Fluffy, likes to eat ramen and sleep on my pillows.
