Any dedicated teacher would tell you they believe that schools are for everyone. For this to be true, all students should feel like they are an important part of their campus community.

I began my career in education in 2011 after completing a B.S. in Chemistry and a M.S. in Environmental Science. I was originally drawn to science education because of my life-long love for science and learning. Since then I have focused on instructional and SEL strategies to improve classroom engagement and performance for students with social, physical, or academic barriers to education. I believe that in order to have equal access to learning, all students must feel safe and “seen” at school.
