    Welcome!

    We're going to have a fantastic year!

    My Education and Professional Background

    A native Arizonan, I earned my BA in English Education at the University of Arizona. I then moved to Wisconsin where I taught for several years while earning a Master's in Education from Aurora University. Although I loved my years in the Midwest, my affinity for heat and sunshine led me back to Arizona in 1999. For 23 years, Hamilton High School was my home, and I am proud not only of the English programs I helped to build, but also of the four-time state championship Academic Decathlon team I coached there.

    My first year at ACP was amazing, and I am proud that our brand new Academic Decathlon team earned the "Rookie of the Year" award for both Region IV and for the state of Arizona. 

    I am excited to bring 32 years of experience and passion to my 2023-24 teaching assignments.

    Go Knights!

    My Educational Philosophy

    Laughter and learning go hand-in-hand, and my classroom reflects that. I have high expectations for all my students, but I also create a comfortable, inclusive environment where everyone is welcome and valued.
