Meet the Teacher

I began my teaching career on the beautiful island of Jeju in South Korea. I enjoy traveling and have had experiences leading high school students abroad with The Experiment in International Living and The Student Diplomacy Corps.

I was invited to be a founding teacher at a new performing arts middle school in Brooklyn, where I developed an arts-centric ELA curriculum.

I also love to play guitar and mess around on the drums and keyboard.

I'm looking forward to celebrating my students' experiences, talents, and creativity in class!
