Teaching style
My teaching style is always evolving as I learn from other educators, administrators, and even students themselves. The core of my approach is that every lesson, activity, and assessment is centered around the needs of the students. I believe in empowering students to take the lead in their learning, even though I know that can be challenging at times. My lesson plans are designed to encourage student independence, allowing me to focus on providing individualized support to those who need it.

I earned my M.A. in Secondary Social Studies Education from the University of South Florida in 2020, building on a strong foundation in Political Science that I gained during my B.A. studies at USF, which I completed in 2018. This academic background has shaped my teaching philosophy and approach, allowing me to bring a well-rounded, research-driven perspective to my classroom.
