About Me

I teach high school World History and Psychology in Castro Valley, California. Along with my teaching responsibilities, I have held a variety of leadership roles over my twenty-year teaching career, including department chair, district Social Studies mentor, Digital High School coordinator, WASC coordinator, Leadership Council facilitator, and master teacher. I believe that technology is a valuable tool in meeting the needs of diverse learners in the classroom (ELL, resource, high achievers, etc.), and am always looking for new ways to engage an ever-changing student population.
