Hello Vines Wildcats! I am happy to be returning to the ESL Department this year, working with our newcomer students on English language skills.  Prior to working at Vines, I taught ELA and ESL at the middle and high school level in Florida.  I am very passionate about literature and helping my ESL students grow in a new language.  When I'm not in the classroom, I love to read, travel, practice yoga, and spend time with my family, including two daughters and two cats.
