Social Studies Teacher

Dolores Huerta High School

I have been a teacher for 23 years, and I truly enjoy helping students connect what they learn in the classroom to the world around them. I believe in creating a classroom where students feel respected, encouraged to ask questions, and challenged to think critically.

Outside of school, I am the proud mother of three adult sons. On weekends, I enjoy getting outdoors and cycling. Teaching has been an important part of my life, and I feel blessed to continue sharing my passion for learning with my students.
