What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to innovate in education, collaborate with diverse teams, and leverage technology to enhance learning experiences.

I am a dynamic educator and curriculum specialist with over 8 years of experience in K-12 education. My journey has been marked by a commitment to enhancing educational outcomes through innovative curriculum development and the integration of technology in the classroom. I have a proven ability to build strong relationships with educators and stakeholders, presenting complex concepts in engaging ways that foster inclusive learning environments.

During my tenure at the Los Angeles Unified School District, I have successfully integrated various educational technologies, such as IXL and Google Classroom, to enhance student collaboration and engagement. My role as a teacher has allowed me to develop and implement innovative, standards-aligned curriculum projects that significantly improved learning outcomes. Additionally, I have led the MESA program for six years, promoting STEM interest among underrepresented student populations through hands-on learning experiences.

With a Master of Arts in Teaching from the University of Southern California, I am dedicated to continuous professional growth and collaboration with all stakeholders to ensure student success. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in curriculum development and educational technology to create impactful learning experiences.
