What I'm looking for

I am seeking a stimulating teaching role where I can connect with diverse students, design rigorous AP/honors curriculum, mentor colleagues, and contribute to a collaborative school culture with opportunities for professional growth.

I am an energetic, articulate science teacher with extensive experience designing and delivering Honors Biology, AP Biology and Chemistry courses that motivate students to take risks and explore. I have a proven record of creating rigorous, inclusive classroom environments, crafting compelling slide presentations, and adapting curriculum to meet diverse needs, including students with dyslexia and Spanish-speaking learners.

Previously I served as Assistant Dean directing dormitory operations, mentored teaching teams at Generation Teach STEAM Academy, and implemented platforms like Summit Learning while earning "Highly Effective" evaluations. Outside the classroom I bring additional skills in rental real estate, tax preparation, public speaking and rabbinic leadership that support community engagement and school life.
