I have been a Math educator since 1991, including nine years as a Curriculum Coordinator and three years as a school‑based Math Coach in a large urban district. I returned to the classroom in 2009 and have continued teaching middle school math ever since. I first earned my National Board Certification in Early Adolescent Mathematics in 2010 and renewed it in 2020 for another ten years. I specialize in creating standards‑aligned, classroom‑tested lessons, tasks, and activities designed to support deep understanding and make teaching more effective and enjoyable for both teachers and students.
