I was born in Mexico City, Mexico but grew up near Pasadena, California. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a bachelors in Elementary and Special
Educational Leadership. Go Lumberjacks! This will be my 23rd year teaching, all of which has been in Kyrene and in middle school grades 6th-8th. This year at Akimel A-al, I will be teaching 6th grade GATE Science and supporting students in reading intervention. I have a wonderful family full of nephews and nieces. My husband and I have raised two German Shepherds and now have a rescue dog named, Rosie. She is definitely the Teacher’s Pet! Living in AZ allows me to do all my favorite activities like hiking, paddle boarding, biking and roller skating (I’m just a beginner but I love it). Can’t wait for an awesome year!

I am a former Kyrene student. I attended Brisas and Aprende many years ago. One of my former teachers teaches at Akimel A-al!! I graduated from the University of Redlands with a Bachelor’s Degree in History. This is my 8th year teaching in Kyrene and my 5th year at Akimel- Al. This year I am excited to be teaching 6th grade Social Studies as well as 8th grade. In my free time I enjoy going on hikes with my dogs Rascal and Roo, reading a good book, listening to music (I really miss live music!), and swimming. I also love cheering on my favorite team the Lakers! I am looking forward to another year at Akimel A-al and getting to know all of you!

I’ve lived in 5 countries (Mexico, Spain, US, China, France) and 4 states as a student or as a teacher. I love to travel, listen to music, bake pastries, watch telenovelas, read (prefer supernatural fiction), write, and hang with my two gatos (cats) and fam as much as I can. I have a Master of Arts in English from SLU (Go Billikens!), a Master of Education in Reading, and Bachelor of Arts in English from MSU (Go Mustangs!)

Intervention students get personalized online instruction from our I-ready diagnostic program. In addition to these lessons, they get small group support for grade level work in their regular ELA and math classes. Our goal is to close any learning gaps that students have to increase their skills in ELA and math.
Due to our instruction being online this year, there are two ways instruction is going to be provided:
1. Some students will have support during their math and reading class core instruction time. 2. All students will get pulled out into small groups to review grade level material 2-3 times a week for 30 mins. 3. All students will be expected to complete 1 hour of online instruction using I-ready passing 1-2 lessons each week. 4. All students will be expected to complete 3 assignments in Google classroom that work on specific skills that are areas of concern.
If you have questions or want additional information regarding intervention, please contact one of the intervention teachers.
