Greetings - My teaching career began in London in 1984.  Moving back to the States a few years later, I ended up in Southern California and now, Arizona.  With  this variety of  experiences, I am prepared to bring a rigorous and relevant educational experience to the academic learners who enter my classroom. 

Defining Moment in Education - My first teaching job was as an "American" English teacher.  I had to relearn my own language to be understood.  It taught me to be very flexible.

Core Educational Belief - We need to respect each other and make good choices.  Problem solving is essential to fulfilling our dreams.

Prior Experience - English teacher at: St. David & St. Katherine School (London), John C. Fremont HS (Los Angeles), Aliso Niguel HS (Orange County, CA), Catalina Foothills HS (Tucson)
