I have worked in the field of education for 8+ years. Previous roles include instructional aide (mild-mod SPED), substitute teaching (grades K-8) and a long-term substitute position (6th grade math). I am presently working as a 7th grade Math Teacher. My education includes a BA in Psychology, a M.Ed with an emphasis in SEL, and a Single Subject Teaching Credential in Math from National University. I am a dedicated educator and mathematics instructor, committed to providing engaging experiences for diverse populations through curriculum design and lesson integration with a primary focus on computational and critical thinking skills surrounding mathematical practices, specifically CA CCSS for Math. My lessons are developed using a myriad of instructional strategies that include components of UDL, SEL, ELD, AVID, and more.
