I feel honored and privileged to have the opportunity to teach third grade here at Dearborn Elementary Charter Academy. I was born and raised in the San Fernando Valley and am a product of the Los Angeles Unified School District. I attended Castlebay Lane Elementary, Frost Middle School, Granada Hills Charter High School, and California State University, Northridge where I obtained my Bachelors of Arts in Liberal Studies and Multiple Subject Teaching Credential. When completing my Student Teaching here at DECA, I knew immediately this is where I wanted to begin my career. Thankfully, the opportunity presented itself during the 2013-2014 school year. When I am not teaching, I enjoy traveling, attending sporting events, and hiking nearby trails.
