Throughout these projects, I designed and led professional development around best-practices in math instruction with a focus on the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics.

I believe that all students have the capacity to understand and love mathematics given the right opportunities! At my core, I am an advocate for student thought, problem-solving and collaboration and as a teacher I created a classroom environment that encouraged discourse, critical thinking, creativity and perseverance. I wanted to create students that were ready for 21st century jobs that, in many cases, didn't even exist yet. In my years at Green County I taught 8th grade math and Algebra I. I also led school wide initiatives to improve test scores, co-wrote and won a $20,000 technology grant, managed the Comprehensive School Improvement Plan, served as the Curriculum Resource Teacher and sponsored student groups like Student Council group , MathCounts and the Academic Team. I also welcomed visitors from across the country throughout the school year into my classroom to view a student-centered, collaborative environment and how I was using Carnegie Learning materials to foster true student understanding in mathematics.
