About Me

I’m a lifelong educator with experience teaching everyone from sixth graders to adult learners. With degrees in communication, psychology, education, and religion, I bring an interdisciplinary approach that helps students make meaningful connections across subjects. I specialize in building core skills like reading comprehension, writing, critical thinking, study strategies, and overall academic confidence.
I tailor my teaching to each student’s needs and love seeing learners grow. Outside the classroom, I enjoy golfing, gardening, and spending time with my two amazing daughters, who inspire me daily. I believe learning should be both challenging and fun, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Experience

I’ve been teaching for over a decade across a wide range of educational settings—from middle school classrooms to high school English and college-level communication and psychology courses. This variety has given me a strong understanding of how students learn at different stages of life and how to adjust my teaching style to meet their needs. I’ve worked with students of all ages and backgrounds, helping them grow academically and personally.
