A little bit about Me...
Hello! I am very excited to be a member of the team at High Tech High for the 2014-15 school year. I am looking forward to this opportunity to learn about project-based learning first hand from the wonderful students and faculty at HTH.
I grew up in Tucson, AZ and most of my family still lives there, so I visit the desert often! I went to college in the green and wet environment of the Pacific Northwest at the University of Puget Sound, where I studied exercise science and biology and played on the soccer team. After college I moved to Berkeley, CA to attend the School of Public Health at Cal.
Prior to moving to San Diego, I taught middle school science in Oakland, CA for 7 years. When I'm not at school (!), I really like to travel, spend time outdoors, and play sports (I have many favorites, but my soccer cleats are always close at hand). My favorite animals live in the ocean, and in my next life I think I will study to be a marine biologist. I love to take and look at beautiful photos, and like to surround myself with memories of the wonderful experiences I have been fortunate to have. I feel very lucky to have a small group of friends and family that I am very close to.
