Who I am as a teacher:

• I’m a cross-cultural encounter that loves children. 

• I’m always looking to provide opportunities for my students to learn real-world applications in Math, Engineering, Technology, and Robotics.

• I love playing soccer, surfing, sk8, rafting and mountain-biking.

• I have a heart for mentoring students, exposing them to the many engineering career fields through project-based, and problem-solving approaches.

• I am a servant leader who is at my best when serving others. 

• I value immensely the importance of working together with parents to help their children become young adults that will be sweet, caring, and intentional global citizens.

• I am relational, creative, authentic, and organized. 

• I am quick to listen, slow to speak.

• “I can not be a teacher without exposing who I am” Paulo Freire, Brazilian Educator/Philosopher

• I believe that all my students have unique gifts and true potential to learn.

•  I'm very appreciative of students’ participation during our learning process: “Learning is not a spectator sport.”
