This is my second year at Rock Ridge and I am excited to work with all of my awesome students and grateful for the wonderful staff.  I teach World History I, a subject which I have long been interested in and which has driven me to constantly learn about the world and its people.  I also teach US and VA Government and can't wait for all of the insightful class discussions with my seniors.  After graduating from George Mason University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Studies, I lived overseas, a life experience I consider to be invaluable in my calling as an educator.  I have lived my life in a multilingual environment which has continually spurred my fascination with languages and their roles in culture and history. I later received a Master of Education degree with endorsement in ESL from the University of Virginia.

I have two children who attend LCPS and are involved in local athletics. I look forward to a great year working with Rock Ridge students.
